The Bach Choir recently wrapped up their 2025-2026 season with “Oscar Nods!” Assistant Director Jon Erik Schreiber and Choir President Tybe Brett spoke with Anna Singer live on the QED Afternoon Show about their upcoming event, Sing Democracy 250.
Sing Democracy 250 is a national choral odyssey commemorating the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. It will feature performances by choir across the country; the Bach Choir will host their concert at the O’Reilly Theater on July 3rd. Jon Erik will share conducting duties with Artistic Director Thomas Douglas.
Jon Erik and Tybe are opening a call for Pittsburgh singers to join the Bach Choir for this performance. Anyone is welcome to participate, and community members are encouraged to contact info@bachchoirpittsburgh.org to express their interest in joining. Singers who are members of other choirs can contact their Artistic Directors, who have received registration forms for their choir members. Rehearsals begin on May 19th at Rodef Shalom’s Levy Hall.
