With its ringing of bells and snowy landscapes, this concert will get you into the festive mood for the Christmas season. And what would Christmas be without Johann Sebastian Bach’s Christmas Oratorio? The Christmas Oratorio is without a doubt one of Bach’s most famous choral works. It tells the story of Jesus’ birth and adoration. You can hear some of the most beautiful arias, sung by baritone Matthias Goerne and soprano Barbara Bonney, as well as chorales played instrumentally by “German Brass”, an ensemble that has specialized in interpreting Bach’s music on brass instruments for 40 years.
