Description

The first concert of our 23rd season begins with Bach’s glorious Weihnachts-Oratorium (Christmas Oratorio), BWV 248, features six cantatas celebrating the feast days between Christmas and Epiphany, describing the birth of Jesus to the adoration of the Magi. With the Theatre of Early Music baroque orchestra, and fabulous soloists, including soprano Myriam Leblanc, countertenor Daniel Taylor, British tenor Charles Daniels and baritone Geoffrey Sirett, this timeless work of profound spiritual expression is a must-see during the Christmas season. Come share our passion as we celebrate this festive season in the beautiful acoustic of St. François d’Assise Church with some of the leading musicians in the Baroque style—you won’t want to miss it!
