Bach wrote the six cantatas of his Christmas Oratorio for different church services over the Christmas season. In 2023, Brett Weymark conducted Parts 1–3, and now Elizabeth Scott concludes the series with Parts 4–6. The Christ child is named in a gently uplifting cantata, then the story turns to the journey of the Magi from the East in music that’s as brilliant and intoxicating as gold, frankincense and myrrh. Interwoven throughout will be world premieres of two short works by our 2025 Emerging Composer Award winners - Kayla Erin Hinton and Phillip Cullen.
