Johann Sebastian Bach's Weihnachtsoratorium is a cornerstone of the sacred repertoire. In this choral edition, it offers singers access to the grandeur of Lutheran composition, featuring chorales, choruses, and arias organized into six parts. The choral reduction emphasizes vocal clarity and text articulation, faithful to Baroque rhetoric.
The score includes all choral sections in their entirety, with precise cues and a clear layout for rehearsals. The accompanying keyboard supports cohesion and intonation, while the chorales provide an ideal setting to work on line and prosody. An essential resource for choirs aiming to tackle a masterpiece in a reliable and practical edition.
