Our largest event of the year takes place in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, traditionally on the campus of Lehigh University and on the historic grounds of the Moravian community.
Welcome to our 116th Bethlehem Bach Festival! The Bach Choir is honored to once again welcome you to the community that comes together each year for Festival, to celebrate the glorious music of J.S. Bach and other composers and the connections we make hearing it. You belong here as we share this wondrous Festival together.
Festival Artist-in-Residence 2024
Vincent Lauzer
Christopher Jackson, Artistic Director and Conductor welcomes Vincent Lauzer, recorder, as our 2024 Artist-in-Residence.
Hailed for his athletic and virtuoso playing and for his sensitive interpretations, recorder player Vincent Lauzer leads an active career as a performer, artistic director, and teacher. He is the Artistic Director of the Lamèque International Baroque Music Festival, works with Arion Baroque Orchestra to develop programs for young audiences, and since November 2022, he has been the Co-Artistic Director of the Montreal Baroque Festival. In October 2018, his recording of Vivaldi’s concertos with Arion Baroque Orchestra was awarded a Diapason d’Or by the French magazine Diapason. Winner of several prizes in national and international competitions, he has been awarded the Fernand Lindsay Career Award and was named Révélation Radio-Canada in 2013–2014 and Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the 2012 Opus Awards.
We look forward to sharing this glorious Festival with you
in 2024 and to see you throughout this season!
