Christmas Oratorio with Sherborne Chamber Choir

Soprano Katharine Hawnt
Mezzo-soprano Helen Charlston
Tenor Edward Woodhouse
Baritone Tom Butler

Written in 1734, the Christmas Oratorio is among Bach’s most joyous music and celebrates the whole Christmas period: from the birth of Christ to the visit of the Three Kings, each event has its own cantata, which together create one of Bach’s great masterpieces. With festive choruses, some wonderful solo instrumental and vocal music and, of course, Baroque trumpets, what better way to start your Christmas celebrations?
