Opening doors to Bach. Opening doors with Bach.

Trinity Bach Project is a vocal and instrumental ensemble that inspires new audiences with the extraordinary musical and spiritual riches of J. S. Bach’s choral repertoire. By bringing to life Bach’s underperformed cantatas with clarity, excellence, and generosity we remove barriers around classical choral music and open the doors of sacred places—both historic architecture and human hearts.

Tax-deductible gifts to the project may be made through our parent organization, Imago.

"Heaven and earth seem to meet in the music of J.S. Bach. The Trinity Bach Project performances brilliantly reveal Bach's faith in the divine and his innate understanding of the human condition. Thank you for your wonderful music."

— Tom Bell, Director of Music at Trinity College and the Cathedral Church of St. James, Toronto

BACH & EARTH

October-November 2025
Season Four opens with a celebration of abundance and invitation through cantatas BWV 187 Es wartet alles auf dich (“Everything depends on you”) and BWV 76 Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes (“The heavens declare the glory of God”). Accompanied by strings, oboes, organ, and trumpet, fourteen singers bring to life vivacious choral fugues and expressive recits and arias along with lush a cappella offerings such as Ticheli’s “Earth Song” and Reger’s “Morgengesang.”

BACH & ANGUISH

January-February 2026
In a turn to the painful side of life, Program Two pairs the lament of BWV 12 Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen (“Weeping, lamenting, worry, apprehension”) with the consolation of BWV 127 Herr Jesu Christ, wahr' Mensch und Gott (“Lord Jesus Christ, true man and God”), as trumpet and oboes are joined by bassoon and baroque recorders. Exquisite choral works by Palestrina (Sicut Cervus) and Arnesen (“Even When He Is Silent”) round out the program.

BACH & TRIUMPH

March 2026
Death and darkness are unravelled in the cantatas of program three: the epic BWV 4 Christ lag in Todesbanden (“Christ lay in death’s bonds”) with its solemn Easter hallelujahs, and the brilliant BWV 67 Halt im Gedächtnis Jesum Christ (“Keep in memory Jesus Christ”) with its promise of peace that quenches fear. In this program, baroque horn joins the ensemble for the first time.

BACH & WINGS

April-May 2026
Season Four concludes with trumpets, tympani, and a doubled choir in a program touching the theme of Christ’s ascension and loving care. Cantata BWV 137 Lobe den Herren, den mächtigen König der Ehren (“Praise the Lord, the mighty king of honour”) explores variations on the familiar hymn by Neander, while Cantata BWV 43 Gott fähret auf mit Jauchzen (“God ascends with shouts of joy”) revisits the heroic drama of Easter with grand perspective.
