Tips for Applicants

Approach this funder by emphasising alignment with their specific focus on Bach cantata performances and classical music. Direct applications should highlight how funds would support cantata program operations, musical instruments, visiting musicians, or score library maintenance. Given the small annual giving ($25,000), smaller project-based requests may be more suitable.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation focuses on sustaining and enhancing Bach cantata performances by funding operational costs, acquiring musical instruments, and supporting special projects including visiting musicians and international ensembles. It values building a capital fund for long-term financial security and preserving classical music heritage through its score library.
