Conductor Daniel Hyde joined forces with Britten Sinfonia and a cast of hand picked young soloists at Saffron Hall to create a filmed performance of Bach’s St John Passion. The orchestra warmly welcomed Daniel’s return after a period of living and working in New York. This is a free concert available from Palm Sunday 28 March.

From Palm Sunday to Good Friday 2 April and Daniel makes his debut conducting the BBC Concert Orchestra and BBC Singers for the ‘Radio 3 in Concert‘ slot at 7.30pm. The programme includes works by Vaughan Williams, Haydn, Roderick Williams, Judith Lang Zaimont and Dobrinka Tabakova.

Finally, whilst it has been a challenging year for Daniel as the music director of the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge we are delighted to announce that the choir’s annual (socially distanced) ‘Easter from King’s’ service will be broadcast on Saturday 3 April on BBC 2.
