History & Mission:

In July 2017 it was decided that they should drop the ‘UK’ from ‘Bach Network UK’ and adopt the all-inclusive name by which they have become increasingly known: Bach Network. This change is reflected in theitr adapted logo and favicon.
Bach Network UK was founded in 2004 by John Butt, Reinhard Strohm and Ruth Tatlow to serve J.S. Bach studies worldwide. Gradually new trustees joined the board and as the work of BNUK developed they decided to change their leadership structure, so that in 2010 they had both a board of trustees, Chaired by Peter Smaill, and an Advisory Council, which in 2014 was renamed as the Bach Network Council (see below). Their annual J.S. Bach Dialogue Meetings became a biennial event in 2009, alternating in even years with a visible presence at the biennial International Conferences on Baroque Music (ICBM) where they sponsor and present several sessions. Their widely-read web journal Understanding Bach was first issued in 2006 and was published for twelve annual volumes until 2017.
Bach Network's website continues to be of vital importance to Bach Network UK as the platform for Understanding Bach, as a means of keeping the network alive and growing through the signup, and as a reference point for their activities and meetings. Through the signup you will receive notifications of their activities three times each year. On their open Facebook page you will find a variety of posts ranging from J.S. Bach discoveries, new publications and announcements, and on their YouTube channel you will find an increasing number of videos.
Bach Network is a registered charity, number 1042036, dependent upon external funding, and welcomes donations to support costs of the continued work.
Trustee and Council members can be contacted directly through their personal addresses, or reached through info@bachnetwork.org
