| Camille Saint-Saëns: Oratorio de Noël (Weihnachtsoratorium) op. 12: SATBFormat : Sheet music In 1860 Camille Saint-Saëns composed his Oratorio de Noël for five vocal soloists mixed choir strings organ and harp. The work sung in Latin is based on texts from the Old and New Testaments the Psalms and Gospels as well as the Catholic Christmas liturgy. A distinctive chamber music-like instrumentation with lyrical soloistic parts and a modest choral part combine to create a basic pastoral mood which has led this Christmas Oratorio to become one of the most performed works by Saint-Saëns. Carus offers this work both in its original version and in an arrangement in which the choir is accompanied solely by an organ.
