From the jubilant opening chorus “Jauchzet, frohlocket” to the serene and tender arias, every note of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio celebrates the nativity story with reverence and exuberance.
First performed for Christmas in 1734, the Christmas Oratorio comprises six cantatas, each intended for performance on a feast day in the Christmas period. In this performance the Irish Baroque Orchestra and Chorus present all six cantatas, for an immersive and enriching audience experience full of joy and peace.
