Widely regarded as one of the finest choral works in history, Bach’s towering masterpiece combines technical skill and virtuosity with an inherent spirituality, leading the listener in a remarkable narrative of faith and commitment. Completed in his final year, the Mass in B minor is the culmination of an extraordinary life in music and a perfect realisation of Bach’s endlessly flexible and inventive musical style.
King’s Lynn Festival Chorus is once again joined by period instrument ensemble Noxwode Baroque and an outstanding line-up of soloists.
