Pool of Bethesda
A new cantata inspired by the painting of the same name on the Hogarth Stair.
The Pool of Bethesda is an exciting new cantata by Barts North Wing's artist in residence Edward Picton-Turbervill, with a libretto by Robert Hawkins. Taking their inspiration from the painting of the same name on the Hogarth Stair, the pair have drawn out the themes of water, healing and community from the story in John’s Gospel, bringing fresh relevance to the story for those using the hospital in the 21st Century.
The evening will have other performances on the theme of water and healing.
