Jordi Savalls, Le Concert des Nations: Bach's Christmas Oratorio

О событии

Rejoice in the season as you take part in a tradition nearly three hundred years old. Baroque expert Jordi Savalls leads his specialist ensemble, Le Concert des Nations and the Capella Reial de Catalunya in Bach's Christmas Oratorio, across two nights.

Written for performance across the entire Advent and Christmas seasons in the church calendar, the first three parts of the oratorio set the story of the preparations for Christ's birth in Bethlehem, while the remaining three parts treat the birth itself, and the subsequent events. This is a rare opportunity to hear the whole work across two evenings.
