“..this is an exceptional performance by an exceptional ensemble.”
“Australia is truly fortunate to have an ensemble of this dedication and expertise to present the genius of Bach’s music.”
Welcome to our 2026 Season
As a new year dawns, so does Bach Akademie Australia’s next chapter! In this, our eighth year, we continue our journey exploring the profundity, originality and joy of Johann Sebastian Bach’s music in four compelling programs encompassing some of the composer’s most well-known works and collections, placing them in historical context, as well as that of his musical contemporaries.
We cannot wait to share our programs and more with you throughout the year.

Artistic Director
“It was probably the most enjoyable musical experience I have ever had.”
“The whole program was extraordinary, amazing. I loved everything!”
“A total immersion in Bach. Rare to have such a pleasure.”
“Beethoven tells you what it’s like to be Beethoven and Mozart tells you what it’s like to be human. Bach tells
you what it’s like to be the universe.”
Sharing and Supporting the Joy of Bach
Bach Akademie Australia is dedicated to putting Johann Sebastian Bach's music front and centre on the national landscape for audiences of all ages. We do this because music is not just entertainment — it's nourishment for the heart and soul, and it's a bridge between people.
Our generous family of supporters is what sustains and enables us. We invite you to consider making a donation to support the Akademie’s vision of bringing Bach’s music to life in contemporary Australia.
All donations over $2 are fully tax-deductible. Every gift, big or small, makes a difference.
