A cornerstone of the Bay Area early music scene for more than 50 years, California Bach Society is a 30-voice chamber choir known for finely wrought interpretations of Renaissance and Baroque music, often accompanied by leading period instrumentalists. Each season, the choir performs four concert sets in San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Berkeley.
Leon Chisholm of San Francisco Classical Voice stated, “In recent years, the California Bach Society has become a prospector of Baroque gold. Its concerts have brought forth exquisite, rarely heard works by forgotten masters from the lost frontier, to the delight of its audiences.”
