The experience begins with a guided tour of St John's Co-Cathedral in English, led by a professional tourist guide. Explore its spectacular Baroque interior and the history of the Knights of St John away from the daytime crowds, before taking your reserved seat inside the Oratory. Valletta Resounds: The Caravaggio Experience brings together Caravaggio's masterpiece, The Beheading of St John the Baptist, theatrical storytelling and timeless classical music in a unique site-specific performance. Acclaimed Maltese musicians perform works by Baroque masters including Handel and Bach, alongside sacred Maltese music by Francesco Azzopardi. Featuring leading sopranos and instruments including Baroque harp, violin, cello and psaltery, the performance is woven together by Fra Bartolomeo, who tells tales of Caravaggio, the Knights of St John and their legacy in Valletta. The tour and 45-minute narrated concert are enjoyed as one complete experience, with reserved seating inside the Oratory.
Absolutely amazing experience. Wonderful and entertaining tour by Rafa, plus a wonderful performance by the cast, bravo Jeremy!! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Valletta.
