Bach's cantata BWV 151, whose wonderfully heartfelt opening aria has been rightly numbered among Bach's most inspired ideas (Alfred Durr), was composed for the 3rd day of Christmas 1725. Flute and oboe d'amore lend pastoral coloring to the chamber music sound picture. The oboe d'amore was not originally included in Bach's score; after completing the score he added the part to the orchestra for the first performance. In a later performance about 1728-1731 Bach replaced the flute by a solo violin, adding various performing instructions and ornaments, of which a flautist can make use in his originally rather modest part. This new edition by Klaus Hofmann replaces the 1962 publication by Diethard Hellmann. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3115100.

Sondra Tucker enhances the Latin rhythms of a traditional South American Christmas Carol via gentle martellatos and ornamental lines in thirds, reminding us of a bright but quiet trumpet duet in a Mariachi band. A lullaby in a minor key has a joyous shift to major for the refrain. This shift is a characteristic of Spanish and Cuban folksongs (guajira.) Fresh, accessible, and fun to ring.

A new carol for Yuletide! The merry melody, punctuated by festive Sing Noels is passed through the choir, giving each section a small feature before a celebratory chorus unites the group in harmony. A minor section provides contrast in the middle, and the sopranos place joyful ornaments on the final full-force refrain.
