Bach Akademie Australia: Bach’s Complete Vocal Motets
12 February @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm AEDT

Bach Akademie Australia opens its stellar 2026 program with J.S. Bach’s Complete Vocal Motets, a colossal, five-city tour in collaboration with Australia’s premier vocal ensemble, The Song Company and guest artist, renowned Dutch singer Iris Korfker, from Thursday 5th February to Friday 13th February.
Following the runaway success of Bach Akademie Australia’s debut, national tour The Countertenor in 2025, Australia’s leading Baroque ensemble presents seven of J.S. Bach’s divinely beautiful vocal motets alongside two works of contemporary genius by Australian composer Sandra Milliken and Scotsman Sir James MacMillan, with performances at St John’s Southgate, Melbourne (February 5th), Wollongong Art Gallery (February 6th), Mosman Art Gallery (February 8th), St James Church, Sydney (February 12th) and Bowral Memorial Hall (February 13th).
