Canberra Bach Ensemble: BachFest Leipzig, Germany, June 2027
The Canberra Bach Ensemble was established in 1999 by Canberra conductor and music educator Andrew Koll, just prior to the 250th anniversary of Bach’s death in 2000. To mark the occasion, Canberra Bach Ensemble was at the forefront of celebrations and presented a number of concert performances of Bach’s Cantatas and other works, many of which were performed for the first time in Canberra, and possibly Australia. Canberra Bach Ensemble receives no government funding or grants, relying solely on personal finances and resources, ticket sales, and donations. Donations raised here will go towards performance fees for concert programmes later in the year and will subsidise travel expenses for the Ensemble’s trip to Leipzig in mid-2027. Please show your support for this important Canberran musical institution, which has not only provided training and experience for up-and-coming musicians, but has also showcased the best historically informed performers Australia has produced.

Seymour Performers Workshop - Donations
Unfortunately, both our venues, The Schoolhouse Theatre in Tallarook Street and the Les Bell Pavilion in Kings Park Seymour, were inundated by flood waters during the October 2022 floods. Many of the company’s costumes, sets, props and curtains were destroyed and both venues suffered significant damage. We have been asked by many people if there is an opportunity to make a donation towards our recovery efforts - we are most grateful for this generosity and have established this fundraising page for anyone who would like to donate.
