Heinrich Schütz: The Christmas Story
and Holiday Favorites from our First Half-Century
Our winter concerts feature the jubilant, seldom heard Christmas Story (Weihnachtshistorie) by Heinrich Schütz for six-part choir, soloists, and Baroque ensemble, which recounts the nativity in a series of delightful tableaux. The 30-voice chorus is joined by a Baroque ensemble of strings and brass, with soloists Caroline Jou Armitage, soprano, Sepp Hammer, baritone, and Paul Flight as the Narrator.
To round out the program, we’re excited to present a retrospective of favorites from our popular “Christmas Around the World '' concerts, with songs, carols, and choral settings from many lands and many centuries.
