What is Bach Festival?
The Bach Festival speaks to the core of who we are as a school and brings our community together! For those of you who don't know, our school's name, "The Musical Offering," is a collection of canons, fugues, and other pieces of music by J.S. Bach, all based on a single musical theme. Every year we come together for the Bach Festival to celebrate our school and community.
