About Gareth Malone's Easter Passion

Gareth Malone's Easter Passion ended on March 29, 2024, on BBC iPlayer.

The show was a documentary series that aired in 2024, where Gareth Malone took eight untrained singers and guided them through a performance of Bach's St John Passion to mark its 300th anniversary. The series followed the singers from diverse backgrounds, including a drag performer from Port Talbot and an amateur footballer from Cardiff, as they prepared for the demanding choral work. With the help of the BBC Singers and the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, the participants learned to sing classical choral music despite little or no prior experience.

Gareth Malone served as the conductor and presenter of the series. The show was approximately 79 minutes per episode and consisted of three episodes in its single season.
