We are delighted to launch a series of six YouTube videos introducing each part of J.S. Bach’s Christmas Oratorio. Across each part, we hear from Artistic Director & Founder, John Eliot, soloists and musicians.
On Thursday 24 November 2022, Sir John Eliot Gardiner was awarded the honour of “Cavaliere di Gran Croce” of the Order of “Stella d’Italia”. The honour was presented to Sir John Eliot by the Ambassador of Italy, Inigo Lambertini, at an exclusive ceremony at the Embassy of Italy.
We are very excited to announce that our critically acclaimed performance of Bach's St John Passion has been nominated for Best Choral Performance in the 2023 Grammy Awards.
This December, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, the Monteverdi Choir and English Baroque Soloists will perform J.S. Bach’s Christmas Oratorio for the first time since 2008.
