I'm referring, of course, to Bach's St Matthew Passion, which can be heard in the next East Sussex Bach Choir concert at St Bartholomew's Church, Brighton, at 7pm on 6th April. (Be sure to book in advance.)

I'll be in the choir as an extra, but I'll also have a small solo part, singing the words of Pilate.

Should be fun!
