In 2027, CONTINUUM will perform *The Little St Matthew Passion*. Four singers and a hybrid instrumental ensemble combine Bach’s monumental *St Matthew Passion* with David Lang’s *Little Match Girl Passion*, in which he transforms the Holy Passion of Christ into a ‘female Passion story’. CONTINUUM is using the dual anniversary of the two works (300 and 20 years) as an opportunity for a radical artistic synthesis.
