Thüringer Bach Collegium

German Baroque Ensemble

The Thüringer Bach Collegium is a relatively recent ensemble, having been founded in 2018. It is a group of musicians who specialize in the performance of Baroque music, particularly the works of Johann Sebastian Bach and his contemporaries. The ensemble aims to bring a historically informed performance practice to audiences, using period instruments and techniques appropriate to the Baroque era. The Collegium is based in Thuringia, Germany, which is a region with strong historical ties to J.S. Bach, as he was born in Eisenach and worked in several towns throughout the region. The ensemble's focus on authenticity and their connection to Bach's homeland contribute to their unique interpretation of Baroque music. They have gained recognition for their dynamic performances and dedication to the music of this period.
