In a series of six streamed programmes for Christmas and New Year, in conjunction with Live from London, Gabrieli present Bach’s magnificent Christmas Oratorio as originally envisaged, one cantata on each of the six most important feast days of Christmas. Sung by an ensemble of some of today’s finest Bach singers, each programme will also include a short introduction by Paul McCreesh and his musicians, and a selection of other brilliant works by Bach. There will also be carols and chorales, which are such an important part of the German Christmas tradition, sung by young singers from across the UK as part of Gabrieli Roar’s ‘Bach to School’ project.
This is an ONLINE ONLY event. Watch live and/or on demand from, 7pm on the date of broadcast until 15 January 2021.
