From the opening chorus’s joyful, exuberant trumpets and timpani, the Christmas story unfolds in dramatic narrative, moving arias, and stirring chorales. Dame Jane Glover brings together an impressive cast of soloists, including the return of Gwilym Bowen as the Evangelist, with the Music of the Baroque Chorus and Orchestra in the full version of this powerful and passionate work.
