Bach’s Christmas Oratorio is among 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 encompasses celebration, festivity, and reflection, and has become a natural centerpiece
of Christmas concerts for generations.
Under the direction of Marit Bodsberg, and featuring Kilden , this magnificent work will be accessible
to both loyal and new audiences.
This is an opportunity to experience one of Christmas’s great musical classics.
