What will I hear at a Bach to Baby concert?

Programming ranges from Bach to Barber, from Chopin to Shostakovich. Studies show the positive effects of live classical music and children are like little sponges at this stage. While rooted in the core classical repertoire, Bach to Baby has always been passionate about celebrating different music traditions, including foot-stomping Klezmer, gypsy jazz, Afro-Latin rhythms, Hungarian Magyar, and British and Caribbean sea shanties. Not to mention operatic arias, hits from the musicals, including Disney favourites, and a healthy dose of Beatlemania!

They bring musicians from the top concert halls to perform in inspiring locations in your neighbourhood. Their artists reflect the multicultural world that we live in today, with diverse heritage including Afro Cuban, Indian, Brazilian, Israeli, Chinese, Korean, Eastern Europeans, Japanese, as well as the British Isles, bringing with them flavours and experiences of their own roots.
