The 2026 Toronto Bach Festival will open with a dazzling program of double concertos.

The concert will include the profoundly beautiful Concerto for Violin and Oboe, and the seldom heard Concerto for two Harpsichords, alongside a concerto for oboe and harpsichord arranged by Haynes and Napper as part of their Nouveau Brandenbourgeois set. Continuing with a concerto for two violins by Telemann that was in Bach’s personal library, the program will come to a satisfying conclusion with Bach’s beloved Concerto for Two Violins in D minor.
