Presented by the St. James Choir 

Chilcott's mighty setting of words from St. John's Gospel is a dramatic yet optimistic re-telling of the Passiontide story. Bob Chilcott has become one of the world's most widely performed composers and arrangers of choral music. His compositional output reflects his wide taste in music styles and his commitment to writing music that is both singable and communicative. He has been involved in choral music most of his life – he was a chorister and then a choral scholar in the choir of King's College, Cambridge, and was a member of the British vocal group The King's Singers. His most often performed pieces include Can you hear me?, A Little Jazz Mass, Requiem, and the St. John Passion.
