Bach Roots Festival (formerly Oratory Bach Ensemble) is a Minnesota-based professional chamber choir and orchestra founded by Matthew J. Olson and specializing in the choral-orchestral music of J.S. Bach.  Through an annual summer music festival each June and additional special collaborations, we strive to transform the antiquity of Baroque music into concert experiences of powerful relevancy through: exceptional artistry, honored authenticity, and engaged community. 


Our recent performances of B Minor Mass were hailed as "masterful" (Star Tribune) and our St. John Passion collaboration with Minnesota Dance Theatre was called "a gripping realization" and named the 2nd Best Classical Concert of 2019 (Star Tribune). 


While our 2020 music festival had to be cancelled due to the ongoing pandemic, we are eagerly planning a festival for June of 2021 that will be flexible with the demands of Covid-19 including outdoor, live streamed, and hopeful indoor concerts across Minnesota.
