Performances like this are made possible by the continued generosity of our donors—we rely on them for almost all of our income. If you value live music in Bloomington and the opportunity of hearing Bach’s cantatas in performances modeled on his own, if you want to support the next generation of early music specialists, and if you can help us continue sharing one-of-a kind presentations of this music, please consider a gift now.
Donations of any size help and are appreciated. We do rely on gifts of significant amounts—$500, $1000, $1500, and more—from those for whom they are possible. You can make a donation from our page, or by sending a check payable to Bloomington Bach Cantata Project to BBCP, Bloomington Early Music, P.O. Box 734, Bloomington, IN 47402.
