Here is Jos van Veldhoven, conductor of The Netherlands Bach Society, speaking of their performance of the Matthaus Passion in "De Grote Kerk" in Naarden, The Netherlands. This specific performance has been a tradition since 1922 and will now be broadcasted live on the internet by MonteVerdi.TV; a new online platform for classical music and opera. The platform can be found at www.monteverdi.tv.
Went to see Xmas Oratorio by Netherlands Bach Society (and this guy as the conductor). I was blown away! The choir ONLY has 4 female and 8 male singers but the quality was better than other choirs that have dozens and dozens of members. It was the best choir group I've seen in my life so far.

A lot of topics he talked about made sense - at least to me as a beginner in appreciation of classical music. I also must praise the good interviewer who lets Jos explain - without interruptions. Zou graag in Naarden zijn geweest voor deze uitvoering !!
