Bach's Mass in B minor

Some say it's the greatest choral work ever written

Sheffield Bach Choir and the National Festival orchestra present Bach's majestic Mass in B minor, considered by many to be the greatest choral work ever written. Both choir and orchestra have presented this work together many times, which should make for an accomplished and assured performance. Sheffield Bach Choir is pleased to present it as part of the 10th anniversary three-day Classical Sheffield Weekend Festival 2023. Conducted by choir President George Nicholson, this will be a very special evening, in the wonderful surroundings of St Mark’s Church.
