Our own Dr. David Crean is the director of the Dayton Bach Society, and we’re excited share news of their upcoming performance of Bach’s St. John Passion on Sunday, March 19 at 4pm. As a full complement of six talented soloists and Orchestra join with the Bach Society chorus. You’ll be able to experience how Bach intertwines the Gospel’s Passion story with deep, emotional reflection on the suffering and death of Jesus. This is a remarkable opportunity during this season of Lent! Additionally, our associate rector, the Rev. Dr. Cal Lane will be offering a lecture at 3pm, prior to the concert, on the persistent question of St. John’s Gospel and anti-semitism. Cal will be address this question textually and historically, paying attention to Bach’s own Lutheran background.
