American Bach Soloists

THE FINEST MUSIC. THE FINEST INTERPRETATION.

The American Bach Soloists touch musical audiences through live performances, recordings, and educational programs that emphasize the engaging repertoire and historically accurate performance practices of the Baroque, Classical, and Early Romantic periods with a special focus on the works of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Named the best American specialists in early music by The Washington Post, the American Bach Soloists (ABS) were founded in 1989 with the mission of introducing contemporary audiences to the cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach through historically informed performances, recordings and educational programs. Since then, the ensemble's repertoire has expanded to include the entire Baroque, as well as masterpieces from the Classical and Romantic eras and beyond. Under the leadership of Music Director Jeffrey Thomas, the ensemble has achieved its vision of assembling the worlds leading vocalists and period-instrument stylists to perform the finest music with the finest interpretation.
