This form is not new. The Laurenscantorij has been performing Matthäus  Passion like this for many years, just as the Laurenscantorij has also performed Bach’s cantates during cantate services. The Matthäus  Passion was written by Bach as a church service. That’s how you really experience the music.
If you want to support this form , you can adopt a chair in a limited number of rows for € 50. Subscribe to the Laurens Vocaal e-newsletter, so that yo are the first to know when the adoption chairs can be purchased.

Hyperorgel

Hyperorgel Rotterdam

In het koor van de Laurenskerk bouwen we een pijporgel van de toekomst, dat digitaal te bespelen is: een ‘hyperorgel’. Zo wordt het orgel toegankelijker voor een brede groep musici.
