About the event
Johann Sebastian Bach – Easter Oratorio, BWV 249
Bach’s Easter Oratorio is a jubilant and dramatic portrayal of the Resurrection. Originally premiered in 1725 and revised over the years, this work offers a celebratory tone with vivid instrumental writing, festive choruses, and expressive arias. It begins with two exuberant sinfonias and unfolds through the voices of four soloists, each representing biblical figures in a reflection on the empty tomb and the triumph of Easter morning.
