J S Bach

The Christmas Oratorio

Much - but not all - of this Work was keyed in from the Barenreiter Urtext Vocal Score. Much - but not all - was keyed in using the "old" Novello score. Note that the new Novello edition may in places have different words - and different "titles" - for each piece ... but the notes are, I think, much the same.

Here are the available Midi Files for this Work:-
