Wiener Symphoniker / Biondi

Timpani, flutes, oboes and trumpets: Bach's Christmas Oratorio begins with these instruments before the strings and choir enter with the words »Jauchzet, frohlocket«. With its rich instrumental scoring, festive choirs and glowing arias, the work sets the mood for the celebration of the birth of Christ - a sonorous baroque praise of God.

The original sound conductor Fabio Biondi

This time, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra will be playing under the direction of Fabio Biondi, the founder and conductor of the Europa Galante ensemble. The violinist and conductor has already thrilled audiences at the Wiener Konzerthaus several times with his captivating interpretations of baroque works as part of the »Resonanzen«.
