“For 200 years, this music has pretty much been confined to the same structures and settings,” says Isaacson. “I stepped back and asked how else can we build the experience—to make it easy and natural for more people to enjoy.” With energy and imagination, Isaacson has pushed those doors wide open to musical vistas that enrich the culture in Maine…Isaacson launched the nonprofit, barrier-breaking Portland Bach Experience, which sets early music performed by world-class players in unexpected environments like public parks, the Promenade, breweries and even the Bayside Bowl.
