The magnificent interweaving of harmonies and dialogue-like Voices in Handel’s For Unto Us A Child Is Born make it a perfect addition to the festive choral repertoire. German-born British Baroque composer George Frideric Handel originally composed this piece in 1741 for the English-language oratorio Messiah which eventually became one of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music. As the last song of Scene 3 of Part I of the oratorio which addresses Isaiah's specific prophecy about the virgin birth of a Messiah For Unto Us A Child Is Born tells the news of Christmas thebirth of a son in Isaiah’s words as found in the Scripture (Isaiah 9:6).

Die drei Duos für Klarinette und Fagott WoO 27 gehören stilistischBeethovens frühester Schaffensperiode an. Durch ihren heiteren Charakter das geschickte Klangfarbenspiel und das Fehlen größerer technischer Schwierigkeiten zählen sie seit jeher zu den Paradestücken der Bläserkammermusik undsind zudem bevorzugte Werke für Schüler und Studenten. Die einzige Quelle für den Notentext ist eine Druckausgabe die erst nach Beethovens Tod erschien vermutlich ein Nachdruck von Pariser Editionen die heute ebenso weniggreifbar sind wie die Originalmanuskripte. Unsere Ausgabe folgt dem Notentext der Beethoven-Gesamtausgabe (Band VI/1); der Spielpartitur für das Fagott liegen zwei alternativ verwendbare Stimmen für Klarinette in B und Cbei. This book is written in English French and German. Both instruments play from the samescore.
