| The
Madison Bach Musicians ensemble is dedicated to presenting the music
of Johann Sebastian Bach—as well as works by other great composers
of the Baroque, Renaissance, and Classical periods—through
performances, lectures, and workshops. Bach’s music was chosen
as a focal point because of its outstanding beauty, variety, and
profundity and because it speaks with urgency to modern audiences;
it is the high water mark of musical expression and craft in western
culture. MBM provides a unique forum for professional and exceptionally
talented young musicians to work together in an exciting and engaging
period performance style. In pursuit of the greatest clarity we
perform primarily on period instruments, and our ensemble sizes
are typical of those used by Bach himself. In 2012-13 we are offering
three exciting new programs. We look forward to seeing you there!
-- Trevor Stephenson, Artistic Director
