A Bach Birthday Celebration Featuring a 10-hour Bach Marathon at L.A’s Iconic Union Station

This year’s marathon will be expansive with big sights and sounds, for an experience of Bach on a large auditory and visual scale.

Also planned for the birthday festivities will be the 60-person Aria Choir, and the 65-piece Los Angeles Recorder Orchestra performing arrangements for recorders of various sized and tones.
