¡Christmas Oratorio - J.S.Bach[Limited Release]
¡The Monteverdi Choir
Description
[Machine Translation] [Christmas Oratorio" is a set of six church cantatas, and is the most human and warm-hearted of Bach's four major religious works. The peaceful and expansive music has a universality that transcends religion and envelops the listener with deep joy. Gardiner's integration of the senses and beauty of this work is worthy of special mention, as he reveals its appeal through a performance that beautifully integrates solo voice, chorus, and orchestra.
