History & Mission:

The Bach Aria Group sponsored the Bach Aria Festival and Institute, an annual summer event held at the State University of New York at Stony Brook in Long Island from 1981 to 1987. The Festival was very successful, attracting some of the most gifted musicians from across the USA. The talented fellows received coaching from members of the Bach Aria Group and guest artists and then joined them in performance at Festival concerts. In addition, the most prominent Bach scholars lectured on significant topics in Bach scholarship. The public shared in the dynamics of the interchange by attending open master-classes, rehearsals, coaching sessions as well as the concerts.
