Extract

Although Sofia Gubaidulina has been an avowedly religious composer throughout almost all her long career, her Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ according to St John, which received its UK première at the Proms on …August, is distinguished among her recent works in that it is not simply a work with a religious inspiration but an act of worship (despite the Russian Orthodox church's ban on instruments in its services).
