And if the life of Christ could be told in three concerts, with the sublime music of Bach? That is the artistic gamble of Raphaël Pichon, who infuses his ensembles with the wild energy of performing three days of masterpieces. First, the Nativity, with the exuberant Christmas Oratorio, where the joyful calls of the Shepherds echo through the night of the divine child’s birth. Then the Passion, in the poignant account of Saint John, which Bach renders with a stunning clarity and an urgency that only pain can halt. Finally, the Resurrection, with the vigor of the Easter Oratorio, and the Ascension Oratorio, which magnificently closes the earthly life of Christ. A sublime evocation where Bach proves himself an unparalleled master.
