With the first three cantatas of his Christmas Oratorio, Johann Sebastian Bach creates a musical picture of the Christmas season full of light, hope, and inner emotion. From the triumphant jubilation of the birth of Christ ("Jauchzet, frohlocket!") to the touching scene of the shepherds and the first encounter with the newborn child – Bach's music brings the miracle of Christmas to life. Magnificently orchestrated and yet deeply felt, these cantatas combine Baroque festivity with spiritual depth – a work that touches the heart and soul and brings the message of Christmas to life with every note.
