Established in 1985, The Broadway Bach Ensemble is a New York City-based 45-piece community chamber orchestra made up of dedicated musicians from many professions who, quite simply, like to make and perform great music together. Our members take their playing seriously. Quite a few have played professionally, and most actively study and are coached in chamber music.
We perform three full orchestra concerts a year in New York City – a fall concert in October, a winter concert in February, and a spring concert in May. We also program a chamber music concert in March.
Our programs are varied and diverse, spanning the 17th through 21st centuries. For samples of past concert programs, see our past programs page.
We have a twelve-person Board of Directors that manages the orchestra. Besides deciding on concert dates, programs and policy – and working on concert production – each of our board members also has specific functions and responsibilities. They are:
Frances Boyd
Carl Courant, finance
