Led by Artistic Director Bill Barclay, Concert Theatre Works has created a first-ever staged production of J.S. Bach’s long-lost Markus Passion. Early Music Seattle is excited to partner with Concert Theatre Works, Portland Baroque Orchestra and Oregon Bach Festival for a Seattle premiere of this important important work as reconstructed by Malcolm Bruno and published by Breitkopf & Härtel. With an ensemble comprising 14 players and 4 singers dramatically supporting acclaimed actor Joseph Marcell as the Evangelist, this musical treasure is brought to life in a gripping theatrical format.
