Utopia Orchestra & Choir / Teodor Currentzis

Bach’s St Matthew Passion regularly returns to DE SINGEL as one of the season’s great landmarks, while Teodor Currentzis has delivered iconic concerts in recent years. But together? This is a first. Currentzis, along with his Utopia Orchestra and Choir, now takes on this passion. His interpretations are renowned for their uncompromising intensity, razor-sharp rhythms, bold contrasts, and unrelenting tension. It is hard to predict what will happen when such a distinctive conductor tackles a work so deeply embedded in collective memory. Everything suggests that this St Matthew Passion will become one of those evenings people will talk about for years to come.
