Το Χριστουγεννιάτικο Ορατόριο του J.S. Bach αποτελείται από 6 Καντάτες, εκτελούμενες σε διαφορετικές μέρες της χριστουγεννιάτικης περιόδου. “Παραβιάζοντας το πρωτόκολλο” ακούμε τη θριαμβευτική εισαγωγή της Καντάτας για την πρώτη μέρα των Χριστουγέννων : Christen, Ätzet Diesen Tag – BWV 63.
Ο κορυφαίος οργανίστας – μαέστρος Karl Richter διευθύνει την Χορωδία και Ορχήστρα Μπαχ του Μονάχου.

J.S. Bach’s Christmas Oratorio is consisted of 6 cantatas, performed on different days of the Christmas season. “Breaking the protocol” we hear the triumphant intro of Cantata BWV 63 for the first day of Christmas : Christen, Ätzet Diesen Tag.
The great organist – conductor Karl Richter is conducting the Bach Choir and Orchestra of Munich.
