The Saint Thomas Choir of Men and Boys join forces with the UK chamber choir Vasari Singers to perform Johann Sebastian Bach’s unparalleled setting of the Mass ordinary. Despite being completed in 1749, only one year before Bach’s death, the Mass in B minor displays the composer’s writing at its most brilliant, demanding, and varied. Internationally-renowned conductor Jeremy Backhouse leads the choirs, accompanied by period ensemble New York Baroque Incorporated, for this performance of the Mass, one of the most virtuosic major works in the entirety of the choral repertoire.
