The Bach Collegium Japan (BCJ) was founded in 1990 by Masaaki Suzuki, who remains its music director, with the aim of introducing Japanese audiences to great works of the Baroque era on period instruments. Its main focus has been the works of JS Bach and those composers of German Protestant music who preceded and influenced him. The BCJ comprises both baroque orchestra and chorus.
