Maryland Bach Aria Group (Vocal & Instrumental Ensemble)

Founded: 1988 - Maryland, USA

The Maryland Bach Aria Group is in residence at St. Mary’s College of Maryland. Fanfare Magazine called the group’s first recording ‘a welcome addition to the recording world’ and hailed the performance as ‘outstanding’. In 1991, the group won the Norton T. Dodge Prize for Creative and Scholarly Achievement. The group has maintained a heavy performing schedule including appearances at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall and at the Teatro Filhamonico of the Arena di Verona in Italy. They appeared in such notable series as the Ars Viva in Goucher College, the University of Maryland’s concert series, the New York Brass Confrence, Baltimore’s WJZ-TV’s Evening Magazine, the International Trumpet Guild, and as host at St. Mary’s College’s Early Music Festival.
