JS Bach's Magnificat in D

Bring together a choir of exquisite voices, an orchestra and Bach, and the outside world fades away.

The Magnificat is a transformative experience, featuring more than 100 performers on stage for a work of immense beauty.

This music is bright and exhilarating, with soaring brass and gorgeous choral singing. It delights with its bold contrasts and cascades of light and colour – a work to nourish the spirit and renew a sense of wonder.

Stephen Layton is one of the world’s great choral conductors, best known as conductor of the Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge, and a specialist in realising the radiant brilliance of Bach’s work.
