Uns ist ein Kind geboren is one of Telemann's most beautiful Christmas cantatas, which features an opening duet for two sopranos based on Polish-Moravian folklore, as well as two substantial choral movements. The two horns allotted to the second choral movement to the text "Ehre sei Gott in der Hohe" can be replaced by two flutes. This is supported by a source from the Telemann tradition in Frankfurt, in which these parts are present.
