Service Description

The Arts Society of Brussels organises a lot of wonderful lectures. Let's join this one together and learn about "Exploring Bach's St Matthew Passion". This event is described as follows: "This special presentation on Johann Sebastian Bach's Matthew Passion is a masterful work that combines tunefulness, craftmanship, dramatic power and spirituality in equal measure. Sandy guides us through music examples, picks out details in the score, examines Bach's autograph manuscripts, and reflects on the extraordinarily vivid Passion texts. After an overview of Bach's life and work, we explore each dramatic stage of the Passiontide drama, before reflecting on the work's context as one of the greatest Western artworks of all." Before the activity we will have a drink together (included in the price) and talk about our expectations, ideas and other things. Price: 20€ (=15€ entrance ticket + 5€ Art for Everyone fee)
