The American Classical Orchestra

Thomas Crawford, founding music director and conductor of the American Classical Orchestra, and oboe player Marc Schachman discuss the orchestra’s upcoming performance of Bach’s Magnificat and talk about playing on period instruments. On November 27, at 8 PM in Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, the orchestra joins longtime collaborators the choirs of Trinity Church, Princeton and Trinity Church, New Haven for a reawakening of the revelatory music of Bach’s multi-movement work for five soloists, choir, and orchestra: Magnificat.
