Portland, Maine has been the home of Bach Virtuosi Festival since 2016. It was founded in this picturesque city because Lewis Kaplan had guided the Bowdoin International Music Festival from 1964-2014. When he decided to start a Bach festival, the location was an easy decision. We love Portland because of its beautiful architecture, the homeowners who house our musicians, the places to explore, and the fact that Portland is a food & wine city. Come enjoy this festival while savoring the delectable and fun activities this city offers.
