Christmas Cantatas

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Charles Gounod & Domenico Scarlatti & Baldassare Galuppi & Christoph Bernhard & Hamburger Solisten & Emil Klein & Hellen Kwon

Christmas Cantatas is a collection of church cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, composed between 1723 and 1734. They are rooted in Baroque liturgical music and pair choral and solo vocal writing with festive orchestral passages that use counterpoint and chorale-based textures, and the pieces date from Bach's years in Leipzig when he wrote cantatas for the Christmas season.
