News & Reviews

  • The dynamic conductor Andrew Sheranian,guided the performance through casting, rehearsal, and concert. As one fellow attendee remarked to me after the conclusion: what he lacks in hair, he makes up for with artistic vision. Though several performers commented to me about the sparse rehearsal time, Andrew’s clear beat and cues ensured that the ensemble never felt uncertain or uneasy. He seemed to maintain effortless communication with every performer, and he rarely looked at his score. One can conduct like this only after having digested and internalized the music.

  • That all this music-making sheltered us from the other goings-on at this time truly made a big difference. Equally so, did the throng of attendees who avidly partook of these musical offerings. Just as welcome were all the selections in this uninterrupted outpouring of musical gifts.

  • “The Bach Project exists to provide low-cost, high-quality performances of the music of Bach to audiences in Dorchester, particularly in the Ashmont area,” says founding director Andrew Sheranian, who is also organist and master of choristers at the Parish of All Saints.
