Thomas Circle Singers to Perform David Lang’s the little match girl passion
March 15, 2025 | Live! at 10th & G
WASHINGTON, DC — Thomas Circle Singers (TCS), Washington’s renowned chamber choir committed to inspiring compassion through music, presents David Lang’s Pulitzer Prize-winning work, the little match girl passion. This moving concert will take place on Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 5:00 PM, at Live! at 10th & G in Washington, DC.
Lang’s poignant and innovative composition reimagines Hans Christian Andersen’s timeless story of The Little Match Girl through the lens of a traditional “passion”—a musical form historically used to narrate and reflect on Christ’s suffering. Inspired by J.S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, Lang weaves a narrative that resonates with modern audiences, inviting listeners to reflect deeply on themes of compassion, empathy, and shared humanity.
