A bit misleading, we were expecting atleast a couple of artists and classical themed music and instruments for babies. It was nursery rhymes at best played by one gentlemen an on the piano. Whilst pleasant, it is definitely super expensive for what it is and should really be more explicit with what the show entails. Lots of better things to do for £36 for a couple.

Absolutely extortionate for what it was. It was one person playing a few songs on the piano with some poems in between. There was nothing 'Bach' about this event and definitely not worth £15 a ticket. The children all very quickly became disinterested. We assumed it would be an orchestra or at least a few different instruments. Very disappointing.

Today was the first time that I had attended one of these events. My daughter and I took her 11 month old son to the Walthamstow event which we all enjoyed. My grandson was mesmemerised and really seemed to enjoy it. The concert was well attended and the children were all remarkably well behaved which indicated to me that they also enjoyed the experience. The pianist was very good and the presenter read poems, introduced each animal with its noises ( this was Carnival of the Animals) and included some nursery rhymes all of which helped to engage the children.

this was our first time at Bach to Baby (our friends who we went with had been a few times before)!
The piano music was very good and we really enjoyed the theme of the moon including the nursery rhymes!! Our 2 year old really enjoyed the nursery rhymes and the actions and was infatuated with the Irish girl in the white shirt’s singing voice! Her, and the rest of the staff were very helpful and engaging throughout the concert.
the concert could have maybe been made better with some soft seating for the kids as ours got a bit impatient on the chairs - but otherwise it was a great way to spend a sunday!

This was our second Bach to baby concert and we will see more and more. The performers were great!
The only downside is that this time we did not have space for the kids. We parents may have preferred t see kids chairs that all for adults. That would have been easier for us as it happened on the London bridge venue where the kids were free to move.

Wonderful concert with brilliant performances. I just felt it could have been more baby friendly, I spent the whole time stopping my one year old from trying to get to the stage bit and then she put her hand on some wet paint stars on the windowsill. Others were struggling to keep babies still and quiet on laps. I would suggest a soft carpeted area with toys where babies can play safely during the concert.

Lovely concert. Pianist and singer were very good - professional musicians but still quite fun. My baby (just under one year old) was engaged the whole time. I just thought the set up was not what I expected for babies. I thought we probably would have some carpets and floor sitting. We had normal chairs which was not ideal in my opinion.

I’m really sad to say that this experience was disappointing. It’s a lovely idea, and obviously something that is well sought after but it just wasn’t rightly pitched for the audience, it was overpriced for the experience, and could have been a lot more baby friendly. The musicians were very talented but it just was not enough, there needed to be more variety.

Reply from Bach to Baby
It was good but could be better. For us it was overpriced for 2 parents with one child (£18 each) for the experience at Balham. My son loves seeing instruments & live music but one man and a piano, whilst good, didn’t offer the variety of interest for the whole time. We’ve been before when there’s been a variety of different musicians and it made a real difference. I hope it helps to know this feedback as I suspect that’s what clinches whether we or others will go back. Alternatively drop the price as something doesn’t quite match here. Thanks

Unlike some of the reviews I loved that it was classical music as opposed to nursery rhymes etc and my 8 month old was transfixed. And it's such a privilege to be able to watch such fantastic musicians in a more informal setting.
Things preventing a 5 star review were the queue to get in (would have been more detrimental if the weather was wetter) and the fact that the buggy parking is a bit chaotic.
My location isn't an option in the drop downs but it was Wimbledon central

My children and I had a lovely time. There was a harpist who played Vivaldi's four seasons and included a few easy movements for the children to take part. She was also accompanied by another lady with a lovely voice and offered support. It was held in the beautiful St johns church in east Dulwich and children were able to move around freely. We sung a couple of christmas carols at the end too. It lasted 45 minutes which i think was appropriate given the age of the children.

Hugely misleading, the marketing needs some work unfortunately. It’s described as a concert and by using “Bach” in the title suggests it’s a classical concert with multiple performers and a variety of instruments. However it was a lady with a guitar singing Christmas carols. For £18 per ticket, it was a serious disappointment. The host was friendly and the woman had a lovely voice, hence not 1 star review. Would not recommend, I would drop the price and consider more performers! Good luck guys.

Really quite disappointing. We went to the Christmas concert with the Sound of Music and they had very little music to engage or entertained the children as this was child focus session. I thought there would be more Christmas songs and nursery rhymes in a classical way to engage kids, it felt very chaotic and halfway through the session all the way to the end it was quite disruptive with lots of children struggling to pay attention and no engagement.

We are huge fans of the Bach to Baby experience! We've been taking our 3 year old daughter to the concerts since she was a baby and we recently brought our newborn along as well to a Christmas concert. The quality of the music is fantastic, they appeal to a range of ages and the concerts are the perfect length and mix of children's and classical music to hold the audience's attention.

Reply from Bach to Baby
Extremely disappointed. So much so that we left after 30 mins. The website shows multiple musicians playing and being interactive with the kids. What we had was a harpist and a lady waving a red flashing star. Whilst the musician was talented, a harp is never going to cut through the noise of babies crying and making noise. It was £18 per ticket and we feel hugely let down. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone. It was at a church in Teddington. We’d have gotten a better experience going to the church for carol singing. We had such high hopes for this but feel quite scammed out of our money, actually. £36 for two adults and a toddler. Please save your money and go to something else!

Lovely concerts with very good musicians and easy to attend with children, though it would be nice to have a bit more interaction / activity for the young children e.g. a circle in front with a bit of a "class" and/or movement and exploration of the music or instruments (I did attend another B2B concert in the past that seemed more interactive than this one). Not cheap either to attend but at least the quality of the musicians is good!

Reply from Bach to Baby
I went to one of the Chrismas specials where they were narrating the story of the Snowman with a piano and a flute. And also signing some carols in between. It was lovely I really enjoyed and I've booked the next concert the following month. There are toilets, baby changing facilities, pram parking area and the venue was very nice, at the church Haven Green in Ealing Broadway.

Reply from Bach to Baby
Lovely music but not what we were expecting. The photos depict babies crawling around the floor, playing and listening to music but this concert was more like a church service and I struggled to keep my restless baby on my lap for 45 minutes. It was also really hard to see the pianist for most people. I think these events could benefit from being more interactive and baby friendly - not just baby tolerating. It's a shame as the concept is great!

Reply from Bach to Baby
I went with my 2-year-old and my 5-month-old to the "Sound of Music" concert, and both of my girls absolutely LOOOVED IT!! (and so did I :) )..
The performers were amazing, and they introduced a few Christmas classics in between every couple of songs, and we honestly had the best time - so thank you everyone!
