This energizing concert celebrates the weeks between the First Sunday of Advent and Christmas Day. This time of elevation from penitence to happiness, from reverence to exultation is captured with joyful sound from the award-winning Boys' choir of Hannover in the Market Church. 3 cantatas for Christmas, the first from Bach's famous Christmas Oratorio, make up the gorgeous program. The choir’s reputation for “historically informed” performance delights with baroque style phrasing.
