Choral Workshop

9.30am–4pm
St Swithin’s Church, Bath

Bath Bach Choir is a spirited group of 90 musicians renowned for bringing joy, passion and precision to everything we perform. We embrace a broad and exciting repertoire from the great sacred works of Bach and other choral masters to the cool secular motets of contemporary composers. The choir gave its first performance in 1947, and in 2022 we celebrated our 75th anniversary year as a thriving, friendly and vibrant society. In January 2023 we welcomed Benedict Collins Rice as our new Musical Director.







Nigel Perrin
4 November 1947 – 23 June 2024

For 33 years our much-loved former Musical Director, Nigel Perrin, whose death in June 2024 we were very sad to announce, brought inspirational leadership to the choir, striving for the best, most creative musical performances, realising the potential of individuals and the group, showing compassion and friendship to so many. We thank him for his love, passion and dedication, and acknowledge his far-reaching musical legacy.

‘So he passed over, and all the trumpets sounded for him on the other side.’
