Welcome, Dear Friends!
In 2020, we celebrate Bachfest Malaysia’s 5th anniversary with new and exciting projects. In addition to our pre-existing professional ensemble Malaysia Bach Festival Singers and Orchestra, we are starting a new community-based Mendelssohnchor Malaysia in January. The inaugural season includes two major concerts consisting of masterpieces by Romantic composers, including Beethoven, whose 250th birthday anniversary we will be celebrating.
Malaysia Bach Festival Singers and Orchestra has been invited to perform a concert at Bachfest Leipzig, and two collaborative concerts with the Thüringer Bach Collegium in Eisenach and Arnstadt in June. You are invited to enjoy the same program here in Malaysia during our pre-tour concerts. In July, we are touring to several cities throughout Malaysia to perform Bach’s St. Matthew Passion. We are thrilled that Dr. Michael Maul, Director of Bachfest Leipzig and Senior Researcher at the Bach-Archiv will join us in presenting pre-concert lectures.

親愛的朋友，
今年我們為慶祝馬來西亞巴赫節五週年紀念展開一系列嶄新的節目。除了我們現有的『馬來西亞巴赫節慶典合唱與管弦樂團』，年初我們將為愛樂社群推出全新的『馬來西亞孟德爾松合唱團』。此合唱團的首兩場音樂會節目包括數位浪漫時期作曲家的作品，其中包括貝多芬誕辰250週年慶典音樂會。
『馬來西亞巴赫節慶典合唱與管弦樂團』將於六月將在德國萊比錫巴赫節演出一場清唱劇音樂會，隨後並與『圖林根巴赫樂團』合作，分別在阿恩斯德特與愛森納赫演出。我們誠邀您出席我們在吉隆坡的巡迴前音樂會。七月中旬我們將在東西馬四個城市上演巴赫的《聖馬太受難曲》。我們有幸邀請到德國萊比錫巴赫節的藝術總監與巴赫檔案局高級研究專家麥克 · 茂爾博士在我們當中於音樂會前給觀眾解析作品。
今年另外兩項系列：小型室內音樂會與燭光晚曲系列將由部份馬來西亞巴赫合唱與管弦樂團團員攜手演出。我們鼓勵您藉著團購優惠與節慶通行證享受物超所值的優惠，又或是成為我們的贊助人，協助我們繼續傳承與推廣優質的音樂，並提拔人才！
衷心感謝您對馬來西亞巴赫節的贊助與支持，我們期待在來臨的音樂會上與您見面！
馬來西亞巴赫節藝術總監
