Budget-priced holiday classic from Arte Nova!

The feast of Christmas in Old Austria was more colorful, more vivid, and for the most part more pious than it is today. Christmas matins in church marked the start of the festival. In Viennese churches, it was even usual to celebrate the birth of Christ with puppet plays ❄ The main themes of the Advent and Christmas seasons–redemption through the Christ child, the beauty and humility of the Holy Mother, the joy and jubilation of angels and shepherds–were all presented in ever-new variants. These themes are so profound, so universally human, their representation in words and music so spontaneous and heartfelt, that even those with no particular allegiance to any faith find themselves deeply moved ❄ With the sound of carols and music from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, this program seeks to bring Advent and Christmas to life just as they were experienced in Old Austria ❄ Alongside hymns that have their roots in the late Middle Ages stand hymns from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, known and loved through the German-speaking world ❄

Selling Points A masterpiece composed on board a ship as Britten returned to England from the U.S. in 1948, this is a touching evocation of boyhood lost but never forgotten. A Boy was Born is a work that first made Britten famous, based on a theme and variations of astonishing ingenuity. The Missa Brevis, written for the boys of Westminster Cathedral, is a gem that in some ways looks forward to the War Requiem which came two years later.

J.S. Bach Christmas Oratorio “Right at the start of the opening chorus, the heaven-storming timpani, joyous brass licks, and scampering sixteenth notes from the strings promise, and indeed deliver, a knockout performance on every level. Time and again you’ll be bowled over by the sharp rhythmic character, textural clarity, and organic feeling for drama Rilling elicits from his wonderful musicians … Rilling’s soloists stand out for their youthful aplomb, effortless navigation of Bach’s challenging passagework, and impressive soft singing … this one adds up to a bargain at any price. Don’t miss this truly great recording.” — CLASSICSTODAY [10/10 RATING!]
