What is Bach Around The Clock?
BATC is a free annual community festival in Madison, Wisconsin, celebrating the music of Johann Sebastian Bach through performances by musicians of all ages and skill levels.
Founded in 2017 as a one-day, 12-hour “around the clock” marathon of live performances, the festival has evolved to a multi-day festival of in-person and virtual performances and related events.
The festival is free and open to all who would like to participate as performers or audience members.
See recordings from past festivals on the BATC You-tube channel.
