Bach’s music is unimaginable without the organ. Its colour, warmth, and harmonic depth bind the ensemble together and give his sacred works their power. But many venues where Bach Akademie Australia performs do not have a suitable instrument, and fixed-pitch church organs are often incompatible with our historically informed performances.
With your help, we can change that. We are commissioning a purpose-built chamber organ from Klop Organs & Harpsichords, a renowned Dutch family workshop celebrated for exceptional craftsmanship, wooden pipes, beautiful vocal tone, and reliability.
Portable and tunable, our organ will travel with us to rehearsals, concerts, recordings, and educational activities throughout Australia. It will remove recurring hire costs, unlock important repertoire, and be available to other ensembles to hire.
Our target is $100,000 by the end of the year. We are halfway to the target through two generous donations.
Every donation will help build this musical legacy. You can support in a variety of ways:
$250 helps fund one pipe.
$500 helps fund one key.
$1,000 helps fund one stop.
Please give today. Together, we can bring Bach’s music vividly to life for audiences now and for generations to come.
