Taking its name from the icon of baroque music, The Bach Project is an ensemble dedicated to the compelling performance of early music on period instruments. Including but not limited to the music of its namesake, The Bach Project performs, instructs and entertains audiences of early music aficionados and novices alike. Oberlin Conservatory of Music colleagues Webb Wiggins and Kathie Stewart have performed together on harpsichord and baroque flute for many years, and are respectively known as experts in continuo realization and historical flutes. Stephen Schultz, Bach scholar at Carnegie Mellon University and one the most active performers on the baroque flute in the country, brings to the ensemble his flawless musicianship as well as his impeccable scholarship. Steuart Pincombe, cello and viol, is a recent graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music and one of the most promising young musicians of his generation. Together, these four performers present concerts, masterclasses and workshops on the music of J. S. Bach, his contemporaries and his predecessors.
