Singer

Josep Vila i Casañas, the new chief conductor of the MDR Radio Choir, captures the spirit of Christmas with music from various regions of Spain. The main work of the concert is "Nit de Nadal" (Christmas Eve), an oratorio by one of Catalonia's most important composers and musicians, Joan Lamote de Grignon. He composed it at the turn of the 20th century based on poems by the Catalan composer Francesc Casas i Amigó, combining folk music elements with a post-Wagnerian style to create a moving, musically late-Romantic narrative about the events of Christmas Eve.
