Our principal artist John Butt leads a performance of Bach’s late masterpiece with five exceptional soloists, including counter-tenor Iestyn Davies and soprano Mary Bevan. John says of the work that ‘If any piece of classical music can be considered universal, I think it’s the Mass in B minor. It goes down so well across a wide range of cultures.’
