Created by Masaaki Suzuki in 1990 with the aim of introducing Japanese audiences to period-instrument performances, the Bach Collegium Japan has received widespread international acclaim for its meticulous interpretations of baroque-era music and for its award-winning recording cycle of the Bach Cantatas in particular. In their Bay Area debut, Suzuki and his ensemble, joined by special guest soloists, will perform Bach's St. Matthew Passion, considered by many to be Bach's greatest work. Unusually sensitive to the visionary eloquence of Bach's musical language, Bach Collegium Japan "sings and plays to the highest possible standards and with utter stylistic conviction," says BBC Music Magazine.
