Beneath the Himalayas, a little Prince awakens to compassion – and attains enlightenment.

In Tan Dun’s Buddha Passion, the legends of Buddhism meet the tradition of Bach’s great choral Passions, drawing on ancient Chinese and Sanskrit texts to retell a story of universal significance.

Tan Dun himself conducts this UK premiere of a masterpiece without precedent in the Western concert hall, alive with all the colour and uncompromising emotional power we’ve come to expect from the award-winning composer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
