Description

Christmas Oratorio (Vocal score) This majestic work by John Rutter takes on a landmark of the choral repertoire, the Christmas Oratorio. The piece weaves together words from St Luke and St Matthew with 16th-19th-century poetry to create a compelling retelling of the Christmas story. The work features five hymn texts set to new, original melodies, allowing the audience to join in with the choir. A solo flute characterizes the angels, while the mellow tones of the brass ensemble evoke a sense of festive tradition. The chorus plays an integral role in the storytelling, assuming small character roles and taking centre stage in two unaccompanied movements.
