Handel: Brockes-Passion

At Barbican Centre

Barbican

Explore the Barbican’s Brutalist architecture while waiting for the concert.
Grab a coffee at the on‑site café; it’s convenient for a pre‑show break.
Use Barbican or Moorgate tube stations for the easiest underground access.

On Good Friday, the Academy of Ancient Music revives Handel’s neglected Brockes‑Passion, a visceral German‑sung setting of Christ’s trial that first shocked Hamburg audiences in 1719, now performed at the Barbican’s grand concert hall.

Friday, March 26, 3:00 PM
