Winter has returned to Erl, and cold season is back as well. Unfortunately, João Terleira had to cancel his participation in the St. John Passion cancel. The Tyrolean Festival Erl is delighted to have secured, at short notice, Christopher Willoughby, a proven specialist in this repertoire, who will perform the arias and the role of the Evangelist. We wish João Terleira a speedy and full recovery. We extend a warm welcome to Christopher Willoughby in Erl.

Unfortunately, the chorus soloist Katsiaryna Senkevich has also fallen ill. Maryia Kozyrava will take her place and sing the role of Ancilla.
