Requiring a double choir and double orchestra, besides soloists, and an evangelist, to boot, Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. Matthew Passion is a towering work, even when mounted as an excerpt. Soprano Noemi Binag and tenor Karl San Jose join us on MAESTRO FILIPINO to talk about this work—the highlight of the 48th International Bamboo Organ Festival—and their preparations. DZFE’s Daniel is the host.

MAESTRO FILIPINO is DZFE's program on the Philippine classical music scene.
