Bach’s Christmas Oratorio is one of his best-known and most beloved works—six cantatas written in 1734 for the Christmas season that depict the story of Jesus’ birth through a rich and varied musical expression.
The music captures the spirit of celebration, festivity, and reflection, and over the generations has become a natural centerpiece of Christmas concerts.
Under the direction of Marit Bodsberg, and featuring Kilden , this magnificent work will be available
to both longtime and new audiences.
This is an opportunity to experience one of Christmas’s great musical classics.
