Can’t Miss Classical Event of the Summer!

~ The Boston Globe,
Classical Music Critics’ Picks

Message from the Director

Eight years ago, I had the vision to bring the greatest baroque artists to Portland to perform the music of Johann Sebastian Bach in intimate venues. It has always been about the music! This vision met with extraordinary success from the public, the press, and the artists themselves. The vision continues in New York City May 14 – 21, 2024 and in Portland, Maine June 18 – 25, 2024 with outstanding artists, the same talented standards, and the same integrity to the music. The Bach Virtuosi Festival offers Portland residents and visitors what they expect: world-class performances of Bach and his contemporaries.

Lewis Kaplan Director of the Bach Virtuosi Festival

“Sharing the stage with Lewis Kaplan was an extraordinary experience for me. The evening was a fusion of ideas and art that was greater than the sum of our individual talents, and I am grateful to have been a part of it.”

Senator Angus King
