Bach in the Subways

Bach in the Subways
in 2019 the LRT station was under construction, so Trans Ed gave us all safety gear and we played on the site.

The most important idea behind Bach in the Subways has always been to bring live Bach, and by extension classical music, to as many people as possible, especially those who would not normally hear it.

We first became involved with the Bach in the Subways movement in 2015, when we took a group of students to do a flash mob at the Edmonton Downtown Farmer’s Market and then played at the underground LRT station at City Hall. Since then, we have tried (with some unavoidable interruptions due to the COVID pandemic) to make this a yearly event in our studio. This event aligns with our philosophy of creating events where teaching artists, who are professional performers, play along with students.

Bach in the Subways 2023:
Thursday March 23 at 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm

This year we will be hosted by the Night of Artists Gallery in the Bonnie Doon Shopping Centre.

The plan is to do a quick Bach flashmob at the LRT station outside the mall (weather and construction permitting) and then to move inside to play in the gallery.
