Comments on the 2019 St. John Passion DVD:
Craig and I watched TBF’s Bach’s St. John Passion last night and, in two words- utterly fantastic- we are ‘blown away’! Truly, we are both taking time to reflect on the beauty and enormity of this production… Barry’s MASTERFUL conducting was inspiring (and exhausting) to witness. We simply had no idea the extent of this wonderful festival you all create. Incredible.

One highly-anticipated new event is TBF's inaugural High School Vocal Masterclass on May 16 12-6pm at the Georgetown Public Library Hewlett Room, with our guest clinician Dr. Michael Hix from The University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, NM. We are seeking eight (8) area high school vocalists to register as masterclass participants, spending 30 minutes with Dr. Hix on their art song or aria. The afternoon will end with a free recital featuring all 8 participants and Dr. Hix as well. There is NO CHARGE for either the masterclass or the concluding recital. Email barry@texasbachfestival.org for specific information!

"Bach to the Future"
KGTN radio broadcast
TBF is planning another classical music cruise for October 2027, as a follow-up to its hugely successful Danube River cruise from April 2025! We are leaning toward including such cities as Milan, Florence, Venice. Vienna, Ljubljana and Salzburg, with several outstanding classical concerts ss the central focus of the trip. Dr. Williamson will once again travel with the group and provide insight and commentary to travelers during the length of the trip. TBF friends and supporters Steve and Sherry Farnham of Dream Vacations will once again plan and accompany our trip.
