no Apocalypse..

Due to the Covid measures applying in The Netherlands, the tour of J.S.Bach - The Apocalypse had to be cancelled. I have been part of this wonderful collaboration between Opera2Day and The Netherlands Bach Society for three months. It is extremely sad to not be able to tour the piece after having worked on it for so long and after having grown into a family within the team. But as the official statement of the company says: ‘the number of people we take on tour (about 70) in this production, is not in balance with the number of people allowed in the audience.’

Nevertheless we will take it to its premiere on February 9th in the Royal Theatre The Hague. The tour of ’the opera that Bach never wrote’ will have to wait until 2024.
