2021-2022 Season
Flexibility will be the key as the Bach Cantata Choir cautiously returns to live performances.
We began live rehearsals in early November, and are following best practices for a safe rehearsal space. These include new masks specially designed for singers; spacing; and ventilation considerations. All performers are fully vaccinated.
At the same time, we are establishing guidelines for the concerts. Seating will be limited, in keeping with the need for social distancing. We will have a registration and ticketing process to manage the number of people who can be admitted, while continuing our tradition of free concerts.
