Choose to experience live music in untraditional ways.

While practicing yoga, watching the boats in Casco Bay, dancing with your children in a historic building, or sipping beer in the Old Port. These innovative and immersive programs have become an integral part of the cultural fabric of Portland, bringing world-class music to you at famous landmarks, renowned microbreweries, trendy coffee houses, funky bistros, and dynamic art galleries.

These are events you won’t find elsewhere — ground-breaking interpretations performed in unexpected places.

Past events have included:

  • Bach in a Bowling Alley

  • The Portland Nutcracker Experience

  • BachBends Yoga

  • Bach & Beer, a pairing of local brews with short musical interludes at the Portland Custom House

  • Cantata sing along, with amateur singers singing alongside internationally acclaimed soloist after a Bach-inspired party

  • Bach’s Coffee Cantata at the Portland Museum of Art

 
Bringing the Bach Festival to this unique, unexpected setting brings such vibrancy to the event—and to the community.
