Music Before 1.

🎶 Experience the World Premiere of J.S. Bach’s Lost Masterpiece! 🌟

We're teaming up again with Music Before 1800 for a Groupmuse Night Out, which gives our community members exclusive ticketing discounts to extraordinary programs across town.

Palm Sunday don’t miss your chance to witness a musical milestone—the world premiere of Bach’s Markus Passion in its first-ever staged version. Bach’s original manuscript was lost shortly after his death (and missing for centuries) but now, musicologist Malcolm Bruno has brilliantly reconstructed this legendary work, drawing from Bach’s own compositions.

This unique performance features:

Four outstanding singers
14 brilliant instrumentalists
A special role for actor Joseph Marcell (known for his iconic performances with the Royal Shakespeare Company and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) as the Evangelist.

🌟 LIMITED-TIME OFFER: 55% Off Tickets Available Now! 🌟

Step into a world where history, music, and drama come together in a stunning, once-in-a-lifetime performance. Grab your tickets today before they’re gone!

Groupmuse ticket buyers are instructed to pick up their tickets at Will Call immediately prior to the performance's start time. Seating is assigned.
