Everything has its time, and there is an appointed hour for all things under heaven… In March and early April, Capella Cracoviensis echoes the words of Ecclesiastes with performances of concerts written for Lent. The repertoire culminates with Bach’s St Matthew Passion; the early version (BWV 244b) performed by Capella Cracoviensis under the lead of Tomasz Pokrzywiński will be the Polish premiere of this rarely presented version of Bach’s masterpiece.
