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. 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 2007-08 we will offer three exciting
new programs. We look forward to seeing you there!
Trevor Stephenson, Artistic Director |
" . . . Madison Bach Musicians, presenting
the sacred and secular music of their namesake composer in ever more
bold, exciting and stylish ways."
