Description: A shorter Christmas oratorio than the 56-minute one above, this 1715 example is less operatic, more lyrical and more laid-back although a similar-sized orchestra provides comparable felicities with its horns, trumpets and flutes. The 19-minute Magnificat from the following year is of similar affect. German-English texts. Nicki Kennedy, Anna Crookes (sopranos), Ursula Eittinger, Dorothee Merkel (altos), Andreas Post, Sven Hansen (tenors), Stephan MacLeod, Johannes Gsänger (basses), Kölner Akademie; Michael Alexander Willens.
