SKU: CA.1021449

Individual part, organ. Composed by Heribert Breuer. Fröhliche Weihnachten! Individual part. 4 pages. Duration 4 minutes. Carus Verlag #1021449. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.1021449).

Key: D major. Latin/German.

A perfect way to finish off a Christmas concert. Heribert Breuer, founder and conductor of the Berlin Bach Academy, conceived this four-minute piece as a final farewell to follow performances of the Christmas Oratorio. Alternatively it can easily be programmed together with other Christmas pieces with similar scoring.The Sicilian folk tune O sanctissima gradually emerges from a sustained organ pedal point in the orchestra. This melody seems familiar to the listeners ... and then the mystery is solved: hidden in the alto part can be heard the first verse of the German carol O du fröhliche! The second verse is given over to the sopranos, and the audience is invited to sing along in the third verse. After a brief coda all the performers wish the audience “Merry Christmas!”. Score and part available separately - see item CA.1021400.
