The Teatro La Fenice is set to host a musical event of extraordinary depth during Holy Week. On Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 April 2025, M° Ton Koopman will take the podium to lead the Orchestra and Chorus of Teatro La Fenice in a performance of the monumental St Matthew Passion BWV 244 by Johann Sebastian Bach - one of the most moving works in the sacred music repertoire, enriched by an exceptional vocal cast.
Michel Tabachnik conducts the Orchestra of the Theatre La Fenice, performing music by Bach, Beethoven and the orchestral Prelude from his opera "The légende de Haïsh".
Johann Sebastian Bach was born on March 21, 1685 in Eisenach. It is his 327th birthday today! So we decided to dedicate a special tribute to him tonight at 20:00!
