YBC March 2006

For over twenty years Yorkshire Bach Choir has been regarded as one of the UK's Leading chamber choirs, specialising in performing renaissance, baroque and classical music. Finding an appropriate performing style, based on recent research, has always been at the forefront of the choir's approach to concert-giving as well as recording. In addition to the annual series of six concerts in St Michaet-le-Belfrey, York, the choir regularly performs elsewhere in the UK and abroad.

Over the years YBC has made a number of broadcasts both on radio and television, for the BBC, Channel 4 and WDR-Köln. The Choir has also made a number of recordings, including:
