Despite its name, Bach’s Christmas Oratorio isn’t only for December. The Christmas Oratorio is a collection of six cantatas historically performed at different points throughout the Christmas/Advent season, and is divided into different sections that tell the story of the Christmas season. Composer John Harbison describes Bach’s Christmas Oratorio as Germany’s “seasonal equivalent to the English-speaking world’s Messiah” with its overarching message of jubilation and grandiose. Come see for yourself why this work has lived on for hundreds of years.
