Ottawa Bach Choir: ‘Sacred and Profane’ – Sat. May 9th

Ottawa’s internationally acclaimed Ottawa Bach Choir (OBC) closes its 2025–2026 season with a luminous spring program, Sacred and Profane, pairing Frank Martin’s Mass for Double Choir with vibrant contemporary Shakespeare settings. The choir will also be joined by Ottawa‑based organist and pianist Jennifer Loveless, whose artistry adds colour and texture to the program.

Dr. Lisette Canton, Founder and Artistic Director of the Ottawa Bach Choir, says, “Martin’s Mass for Double Choir is one of the most inspiring choral works of the 20th century, and pairing it with contemporary Shakespearean settings creates a captivating musical celebration of spring.”
