Exeter Bach Society & Exeter Chorale St Matthew Passion Salvation Army Temple, Friars Gate, Exeter Saturday 9 March 2019 Press Release from Bernard Culverhouse

Exeter Bach Society will perform the Bach St. Matthew Passion on March 9th at the Salvation Army Temple, starting at 7.00pm.

The performance will be given in conjunction with the Exeter Chorale and choir of St. Peter’s School, Lympstone.

This concert was cancelled last year after snow the night before.

The society performs on of the major Bach works each year, usually with seasonal relevance.  As Easter 2019 approaches, there can be no better context to perform this monumental and moving work, which calls for a double choir and orchestra.

The Salvation Army Temple is conveniently located just a short walk from the cathedral and numerous parking facilities, and provides a comfortable, and warm, venue.
