Bach’s music is normally heard in churches or concert halls. Now there is a unique opportunity to experience the Johannes-Passion at Dutch National Opera in our collaboration with the Netherlands Bach Society.

Conductor Leonardo García-Alarcón was one of the instigators of this moving interdisciplinary interpretation of the Passion story. Together with choreographer Sasha Waltz, he has turned this pinnacle of Western music history into a poetic, deeply human narrative about the quest for truth, justice and salvation. Waltz creates a symbiosis between singers, musicians, chorus and dancers from her own company, in which movement and sound merge.
