Taking place on Saturday, December 9 at 7.30pm, The Christmas Oratorio is Bach’s great setting of the Christmas story and features an electrifying opening chorus, a richly-scored orchestral part plus exquisite arias from the four professional soloists.

Each of the oratorio’s six parts, four of which will feature, begin and end with the chorus and orchestra in a mood of jubilation for an evening of music-making of the highest order.
