Chorsätze aus dem Weihnachts-Oratorium teil I-III

Description

The movement Jauchzet, frohlocket, auf, preiset die Tage (Shout ye exultant this Day of Salvation) is an essential part of the Christmas music repertoire, but for many parishes a lack of instrumentalists and finances makes the performance of the work in its original orchestration very difficult.

This new Choir & Organ arrangement of the popular choral movements from parts I-III of Bachs Christmas Oratorio responds to precisely this need for a smaller orchestration. A second volume with the choir movements from parts IV-VI will be published later.

• Famous choral movements arranged for choir and organ
• Magnificent sound maintained for this smaller-ensemble arrangement

Holger Gehring has been the Kreuzorganist in Dresden since 2004 and also teaches organ at the Hochschulen in Dresden and Leipzig. In cooperation with the Dresdner Kreuzchor, and as a solo organist and cembalist, he appears regularly in concerts within Germany as well as abroad.
