OREGON BACH FESTIVAL
The Oregon Bach Festival’s Berwick Academy was launched this year thanks to a generous gift from UO alumni Phyllis and Andrew Berwick. The Academy is dedicated to historically informed performance practice of music from the 17th to the 19thcenturies, open by audition to young professional musicians. This training and touring company will be one of the first of its kind in the country.
Through its combination of immersive training, stellar faculty, and a concert tour—all at virtually no cost to participants—the university and festival foresee the Berwick Academy becoming the nation’s premier destination for aspiring musicians serious about historically informed performance (known as HIP).
The Berwicks met as UO students in the 1950s and have been involved and engaged as long-time, significant donors and volunteer leaders for both the university and the Oregon Bach Festival.
