Edward Grint bass

Oxford Philharmonic Choir
Marios Papadopoulos conductor

Marios Papadopoulos assembles a team of front-rank soloists and the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir at the Sheldonian Theatre for a performance of Bach’s monumental Mass in B minor. In the late 1740s, Bach returned to two movements of the Latin Mass written a decade and a half earlier, expanding them into what many consider his towering achievement. The B minor Mass would prove the culmination of the composer’s work in sacred music, establishing new ways of organising sounds, words, harmonies and keys while creating the most epic of journeys in faith and music.
