Early Music Michigan is led by artistic directors, Eric Strand and Ann Marie Boyle. Early Music Michigan was founded in 1996 as the Michigan Bach Collegium. In 2009, we changed our name to Early Music Michigan to emphasize our mission of performing a wide variety of early music– generally speaking, music written and performed before the nineteenth century–not limited to the works of J. S. Bach. As an early-music ensemble emphasizing historically-informed performance, we occupy a valuable niche, providing music and creative programming that would not otherwise be available in the greater Kalamazoo area. Our mission is to perform early music in a dynamic, varied and historically informed manner that honors this body of rare and ancient musical treasures, the artistic voice, and the humanity of collaborative music making.
