A
perfect way to finish off
a Christmas concert.
Heribert Breuer, founder
and conductor of the
Berlin Bach Academy,
conceived this
four-minute piece as a
final farewell to follow
performances of the
Christmas Oratorio.
Alternatively it can
easily be programmed
together with other
Christmas pieces with
similar
scoring.The
Sicilian folk tune O
sanctissima gradually
emerges from a sustained
organ pedal point in the
orchestra. This melody
seems familiar to the
listeners ... and then
the mystery is solved:
hidden in the alto part
can be heard the first
verse of the German carol
O du fröhliche! The
second verse is given
over to the sopranos, and
the audience is invited
to sing along in the
third verse. After a
brief coda all the
performers wish the
audience “Merry
Christmas!â€.

Newman, John
Henry.
This is the
best of me, wrote Edward
Elgar after the final
measure of his Dream of
Gerontius. Premiered in
1900, in Great Britain
the work has long been a
standard work in the
repertoire of large
oratorio choirs. Elgar's
moving, poetic setting of
the eponymous poem by
Cardinal John Henry
Newman is about a dying
man and his journey
beyond death to God.
Before the eyes of the
listeners, a musical
image of the soul is
created which flies past
mocking demons to God
with its protecting angel
at its side, is allowed
to look at God briefly,
then faces the purgatory
confident and comforted.
The work is a real rarity
in the history of
oratorio, and for large
choirs it is a thrilling
alternative to the
established repertoire of
Requiem settings. Its
popularity is thanks to
the suggestive, often
sensuous power of the
music, the great choral
scenes of the demons and
the angels, and the three
impressive solo
parts.All
previous editions were
reprints based on the
historic first printed
materials, which are
inconsistent. By
contrast, Carus has
produced a modern,
newly-engraved edition,
compatible in all
sections, which takes all
the sources into
consideration and
evaluates the autograph
manuscript in detail. For
