Christmas in Munich
Christmas choral music from the Bavarian Radio Chorus, including Saint-Sa毛ns's Oratorio de No毛l and works by Britten, Poulenc, Mendelssohn, Janacek and Jan Sandstr枚m.
Patrick Hahn conducts the Bavarian Radio Chorus and Munich Radio Orchestra in a programme of festive choral music from Munich, including the austere beauty of Poulenc's Four Christmas motets, an exquisite miniature by the teenage Britten, and Jan Sandstr枚m鈥檚 atmospheric adaptation of Praetorius鈥檚 Det 盲r en ros utsprungen.
The final work, Saint-Sa毛ns鈥� Christmas Oratorio, was composed in just two weeks when the 23-year-old composer had recently started work as organist of the famous church of La Madeleine in Paris.
Recorded on Saturday at the Prinzregententheater, Munich. Presented by Danielle Jalowiecka.
