Johann Sebastian Bach
Weihnachtsoratorium, BWV 248
Now a cherished Washington, DC tradition, our annual performance of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio is as joyous as the ringing-in of the holiday spirit itself, no matter how you celebrate! The Washington Post was inspired to say that this “joyous” telling of the Christmas story shows that the Consort “could go head-to-head with period ensembles anywhere.”
Hannah De Priest, soprano
Sylvia Leith, alto
Thomas Cooley, tenor & Evangelist
Tyler Duncan, bass
Join us for Talking Bach at 3 p.m.! This series of free pre-concert lectures by noted Bach scholar Michael Marissen is presented one hour before Director’s Series performances. Learn More»
Mary Ann Gardner, Suzanne R. & Robert L. McDowell, Jr, and Reverend Elizabeth L. Carl, underwriters
