Christmas Oratorio
Heavenly chorals, desire and solace; a Christmas story in all its glory. Let your heart be warmed as the winter days approach.
Sparkling brass, roaring timpani and a jubilant chorus: Bach's Christmas Oratorio falls regally at the door. From that radiant beginning, the wonders thread themselves together: heavenly chorales, an enchanting echo duet, the trio "Ach, wenn wird die Zeit erscheinen" full of longing and comfort - and the Christmas story unfolds in all its glory. Heartwarming music in the darkest days of the year.
