SUMMARY:Bach's Markus Passion
DESCRIPTION:The UK premiere of a staged version of “a new Bach masterpiece”\, produced by Bill Barclay’s Concert Theatre Works and brought to life by the Dunedin Consort with John Butt and actor Joseph Marcell.\n\nJ. S. Bach Markus Passion BWV 247\n\nDunedin Consort\nJoseph Marcell evangelist\nAnna Dennis soprano\nJames Hall countertenor\nNicholas Mulroy tenor\nMatthew Brook bass-baritone\nJohn Butt conductor \nMalcolm Bruno editor\nBill Barclay writer\, director \n\n\n\nThe St Mark Passion – the most intimate of J.S. Bach’s three Passion settings – was first performed in 1731\, a few years after his monumental St Matthew Passion. But shortly after the composer’s death\, the manuscript score went missing and the search for the original music has occupied musicians and scholars ever since its loss was first noticed in 1850. \nThough discovery of the original Markus-Passion continues to elude us\, there are enough clues – in the unique instrumentation\, in the text and in the practice of Baroque composers of repurposing their existing music – for a full reconstruction of the long-lost score. \nThis new edition by Malcolm Bruno of Bach’s “pocket passion” is dramatically presented by writer and director Bill Barclay in this theatrical production. It offers a unique role for an actor speaking the role of Evangelist (in English)\, alongside four singers and single strings\, creating the intimacy of chamber music. \nFollowing the world premiere in New York in April 2025\, Bill Barclay and acclaimed actor Joseph Marcell (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air\, Shakespeare’s Globe\, Royal Shakespeare Company and The National Theatre) are joined for the UK premiere at the Aldeburgh Festival by renowned conductor and scholar John Butt and the Dunedin Consort . \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:EIF: Clori\, Tirsi e Fileno
DESCRIPTION:Little is known about the genesis of Handel’s early comic cantata Clori\, Tirsi e Fileno\, but the score was mined for a number of hits in his more well-known operas. Who better to bring this once neglected comedy to fizzing life than Dunedin Consort with director John Butt. \nGeorge Frideric Handel Clori\, Tirsi e Fileno HWV 96  \nJohn Butt director \n Julie Roset  Clori\nNardus Williams Tirsi\nReginald Mobley Fileno\nDunedin Consort \n\nClori\, Tirsi e Fileno tells the pastoral tale of an indecisive shepherdess whose wavering affections drive both her suitors away\, proving that love doesn’t always flourish – sometimes it fades before it even begins. A light-hearted romp through the mores of its time\, it concludes with a playful trio\, Vivere e non amar (‘To live and not to love’). \nSharp-eared listeners will find echoes in Handel’s Rodrigo and Acis and Galatea but hearing this witty cantata in its full is a rare and revelatory treat.

SUMMARY:Bach: Matthew Passion
DESCRIPTION:Bach’s Matthew Passion is an annual fixture in the Dunedin Consort calendar and it’s a privilege to bring it once again to Wigmore Hall at the start of their 125th anniversary celebrations. This monumental work delivers the drama of Holy Week\, all the while reflecting on the cosmic and theological consequences of Jesus’ life and crucifixion. An entirely one-to-a-part performance\, all the players and singers become vital co-narrators alongside the peerless Nicholas Mulroy as Evangelist. \nJohann Sebastian Bach Matthew Passion\, BWV 244 \nJohn Butt director\nRowan Pierce soprano\nHugh Cutting countertenor\nNicholas Mulroy Evangelist\nMarcus Farnsworth Christus \n\n\n\n\nJessica Cale soprano\nSarah Anne Champion mezzo-soprano\nHiroshi Amako tenor\nChristopher Webb bass

SUMMARY:Bach: Markus Passion
DESCRIPTION:Shortly after Bach’s death in 1750\, his Markus Passion was hand-delivered by his son C.P.E. to his Leipzig publisher\, Johann Breitkopf. We’re deeply familiar with his John and Matthew Passions but it was not for a century that the editor collating a new complete J.S. Bach edition noticed that the music for the Markus was missing. An expert borrower of his own music\, it seems likely that Bach recycled material from his Trauer-Ode for his former employer in Köthen. This new edition by Malcolm Bruno offers three beautiful and virtually unknown arias to fill the empty places left by the shorter music of the Trauer-Ode\, along with a unique role for an actor as Evangelist. This “pocket passion” of just four singers\, actor\, and single strings complements Bach’s two enormous Passions with the intimacy of chamber music. \n\n\nMarkus Passion with Concert Theatre Works\n\nJ.

SUMMARY:Bach's Italy
DESCRIPTION:Johann Sebastian Bach may never have actually visited Italy but he certainly made the journey in music. An avid consumer and transcriber of his Italian colleagues\, he borrowed their music as themes for fugues or took up their musical ideas to structure his own compositions. This concert brings his voracious interest to life as glittering and heartbreaking Italian concertos for strings set the stage for Bach’s Double\, which invites sinuous virtuosity and exquisite tenderness from two of Dunedin’s finest.  \n  \nArcangelo Corelli Concerto Grosso\, Op. 6\, No. 7\nAntonio Vivaldi Concerto for Two Violins in D minor\, RV 514 \nGeorg Muffat Sonata V\, Armonico Tributo\n~\nAntonio Vivaldi Concerto for Two Violins & Cello\, RV 565 \nArcangelo Corelli Concerto Grosso\, Op. 6\, No. 6\nJohann Sebastian Bach Concerto for 2 Violins\, BWV 1043   \nJohn Butt director \nMatthew Truscott violin \nHuw Daniel violin \nJonathan Manson cello \nPre-concert talk with John Butt at 6.30pm  \nDownload your programme here \nIncluded in the Edinburgh Subscription Season.

SUMMARY:Handel: Messiah
DESCRIPTION:It’s no surprise that Handel’s Messiah continues to draw audiences back year after year. There is nothing quite like it. Although the Hallelujah chorus has become the work’s calling card\, Handel wrote every note to impress and astound his listeners. Its choruses are as grand as anything Handel ever composed\, the solo writing profoundly moving\, the drama powerful and compelling. Performed ‘the Dunedin way’ as Handel would have first heard it\, with a small orchestra\, a team of twelve singers and soloists who step out from the chorus\, there are few more uplifting ways to celebrate the festive season.   \nGeorge Frideric Handel Messiah\, HWV 56   \nJohn Butt director \nNardus Williams soprano\nLotte Betts-Dean mezzo-soprano\nJoshua Ellicott tenor\nDingle Yandell bass  \nIncluded in the Edinburgh Subscription Season.
