310 years after it was written, Handel’s popular »Brockes Passion« will be performed for the first time with a star-studded cast at the Elbphilharmonie Grand Hall. The »Brockes Passion« is the only sacred work by Handel in the German language. With its operatic and rousing character, Handel’s composition is also a musical rarity among the Passions.
