Eine ganze Gemeinde die Geburt Christi feiern zu lassen und dabei die unterschiedlichen Fahigkeiten musikalischer und gestalterischer Art von Kindern, Jugendlichen und Erwachsenen zusammenzufassen und zur Geltung zu bringen, wurde dieses Stuck geschrieben und in den Jahren von 1946 bis 1954 jeweils am Heiligen Abend in der Kirche zu Ottowind bei Coburg aufgefuhrt. Die von Kindern getragene Spielhandlung, die eigentlich nur darin besteht, ein lebendes Krippenspiel aufzubauen, greift die Tradition der Christgeburtsspiele auf; die Besucher werden einbezogen durch den gemeinsamen Gesang von Weihnachtschoralen; die liturgische Bindung ist durch Schriftlesungen und Vertonungen von Bibeltexten gewahrt. [] Die vorliegende Ausgabe ist zugleich auch als ein weihnachtliches Sing- und Spielbuch gedacht, das im hauslichen Kreise ebenso wie in Schule oder Verein gute Dienste leisten wird.' (Franz Mockl) Fur Kinder ab 6 Jahren geeignet; der gemischte Chor und die Solo-Partien konnen mit Jugendlichen besetzt werden.

Buxtehude took the melody and words from the evening hymn Christ, der du bist der helle Tag. The words are embellished with coloratures and a change of meter enhances the work's charme. This composition goes beyond the bounds of a straightforward chorale cantata through its use of concertante elements, which also applies the voice parts. The title of this work, on a copy made by Gustav Duben, refers to the accompanying violin parts in the words con due vel piu violini. This may indicate that each part should be played by several instrumentalists. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3601400.

There comes a galley, laden / Es kommt ein Schiff, geladen
O saviour, open heaven's gate / O Heiland, reiss die Himmel auf
O Lord, how shall I meet you / Wie soll ich dich empfangen
Angels from the realms of Glory / Hort der Engel helle Lieder
As I was watching o'er my sheep / Als ich bei meinen Schafen wacht
Good Christian men rejoice / Nun singet und seid froh

Geistliches Komodienspiel aus Bayern. Composed by Cesar Bresgen. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Classical. Score. 64 pages. Duration 75'. Schott Music #ED 5443-10. Published by Schott Music (HL.49015174).

Das geistliche Komodienspiel aus Bayern, die Christkindl-Kumedi, haben bauerliche Autoren fur ein bauerliches Publikum geschrieben, das oftmals weitverstreut auf einsamen Hofen wohnte. Die Bauern stellten die Darsteller und den Regisseur; mit der Inszenierung zog man nun von Bauernhof zu Bauernhof, von Bauernstube zu Bauernstube. Man kann also mit gutem Recht von einem Vorlaufer unseres modernen 'Zimmertheaters' sprechen! Und genau wie bei unserem heutigen Zimmertheater war auch damals die Ausstattung und die Kostumierung der Christkindl-Kumedi sehr einfach, man richtete sich mehr oder weniger nach den vorhandenen Moglichkeiten. Der Spieltext folgt nahezu unverandert einer Handschrift aus Grainet bei Passau, welche den Titel tragt: 'Geistliches Komedien-Spiel zu Ehren des Christkindelein Anno den 20 ten Janer 1836, dargeboten in August Hartmann und Hyazinth Abeles Volksschauspielen (Leipzig 1880)'. Einige der Originalmelodien sind in unsere Neugestaltung ubernommen worden; sie stammen aus dem bayrisch-osterreichischen Grenzraum. Die ubrige Musik wurde neu geschaffen.' (Cesar Bresgen) Die Christkindl-Kumedi ist fur Kinder ab 6 Jahren geeignet; die Partien von Maria, dem Vorsanger und dem Engel sollten entweder von erfahrenen und entsprechend ausgebildeten Jugendlichen oder von Erwachsenen gesungen werden.
