Bach from home is a joint project of the festivals Thuringia Bach Festival, the Bachfest Leipzig and the Köthener Bachfesttage. On this homepage we present concerts as live broadcasts or recordings to allow those, who cannot be present directly on site, to experience concerts at the historic locations of Bach’s life and work.

Art is not for free - as artists deserve getting paid. That is why we have decided not to offer the concerts shown here free of charge.

As when physically attending a concert, by buying a ticket you help to pay artists an appropriate fee for their performance - and in the same way you help us as to compensate, at least proportionally, for the not inconsiderable expense of a sound and video recording.

B+A+C+H = 14. This is the basic price we ask for a digital concert visit. If you would like to support the artists, technicians, service providers and promoters involved, you can also purchase a sponsorship or patronage ticket. All those involved would like to thank you in advance for your contribution!

All concerts will be streamed live, but will remain available afterwards in our video on demand section (library). This will allow you to watch all concerts also at a later date. The log-in codes will remain valid. The switch from live to the library usually needs a few hours due to technical adjustments, so we may have to ask you for your patience.

Click on the event you want to watch and the TICKET button will take you to the order page. There you can book the  you have chosen.

Please note:
Once you have received your ticket(s) with the streaming codes, you can enter your streaming code on the day of the respective live concert from 30 minutes before the concert starts on our homepage www.bachfromhome.live under "ZUM LIVE KONZERT" and watch the concert live. After the live broadcast, you will have the opportunity to watch the concert in our video-on-demand area (Mediathek) for another 7 days. To do so, please select the desired concert in our media library and enter the streaming code there.

After ordering and paying in the shop, you will receive your personal ticket as a PDF file by e-mail. This ticket contains the streaming code you’ll need to log in. You can simply copy the code from the PDF and paste it into the login window on the homepage. After confirmation, you will be taken directly to the selected live stream or video-on-demand (VOD).

Each ticket purchased receives its own streaming code, which is only valid for the purchaser on one device and only for the event shown on the ticket.

At first, please check your SPAM folder. If you cannot find the confirmation e-mail, issued by our ticket and streaming partner TSHAKKA, cannot be found there, please send us an e-mail to kontakt@bachfromhome.live.We do speak English and German and will reply as soon as possible.

If you have booked a ticket for a live concert or a premiere, we will send you another reminder on the day of the concert.

No, the booking is binding. Tickets for concerts can neither be rebooked nor cancelled.

If the concert cannot be rescheduled and the event is cancelled, the ticket price paid will of course be refunded.
