 | | MetLiveArts | | The Little Match Girl Passion | Saturday, January 6, 7:30 pm
Gallery 305, Medieval Sculpture Hall
David Lang's Pulitzer Prize–winning The Little Match Girl Passion, based on a Hans Christian Andersen story and modeled after Bach's St. Matthew Passion, has become a beloved Met holiday tradition over the last decade. Now, the haunting piece returns in its starkest, most poignant form: a quartet of percussion-playing vocal soloists standing in front of The Met's ornate Christmas tree and Neapolitan baroque crèche. Join us for this wrenching contemplation of joy amid suffering, hope amid hopelessness, and beauty amid bleakness.
Free with Museum admission.
