This week&rsquo;s featured work: Corelli's Christmas Concerto
Our final feature this Christmas on Christmas repertoire is about our DG recordings of Arcangelo Corelli's Concerto Grosso in G Minor, Op.6, No. 8, better known as The Christmas Concerto, since it bears the inscription 'Fatto per la notte di Natale' ('made for the night of Christmas'). It was probably written as part of the entire collection of Op. 6 in the 1680's but not prepared for publication until 1714. They are among the finest and first examples of concerti grossi.
We present three different recordings of this concerto: a version by the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, a version on period instruments conducted by Trevor Pinnock and the English Concert, and a version by Herbert Karajan with the Berliner Philharmoniker.

Christmas Oratorio, BWV 248
Bach's Christmas Oratorio is among the most well-known pieces by the composer. Premiered in the winter 1734, it is structured as six cantatas, each intended for church performance on a feast day of the Christmas period. There are many notable recordings of the Oratorio; from our catalogue these include our most recent recording by John Eliot Gardiner from 2022 as well as his earlier recording from 1987, plus versions by Karl Richter, Hanns-Martin Schneidt and Fritz Lehmann (recorded as far back as 1955.)

Unthinkable! Today on the 6th of December it is exactly 132 years since the Nutcracker ballet was performed for the first time at the Mariinsky Theater in Saint Petersburg. It was December 6, 1892, and ever since Christmas has not been the same.

&nbsp;
&ldquo;Messiah&rdquo; by Georg Frederic Handel
Do you know this fun fact? The famous &lsquo;Hallelujah&rsquo; is one of the most frequently performed pieces in music literature. In many places around the world, it is customary for the audience to stand up for this part of the performance - legend has it that when King George II first heard the chorus, he was so moved that he jumped to his feet, prompting everyone else to follow his example.
Explore Handel&rsquo;s mighty &ldquo;Messiah&rdquo; below and: be moved!

Recording on our partner label CAvi Music, German cellist Jan Vogler and American conductor Kent Nagano announce their upcoming album, on which they perform Sean Shepherd&rsquo;s oratorio On a Clear Day for cello, choir and orchestra.<span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}">&nbsp;
Both artists are bound by much more than a deep artistic friendship and their collaborative work. They share a worldview and understanding of life based on the Western, humanistic canon of values that Europeans once carried across the Atlantic to their new world. "It was precisely this transatlantic idea that drove me when Jan and I developed this project a few years ago," says Nagano. This thematic concern is underscored by the participants of the project: the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra, the well-known German poet Ulla Hahn, the young American composer Sean Shepherd, and various youth choirs from Germany and New York.<span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}">&nbsp;
Listen to a pre-release track of Sean Shepherd&rsquo;s &lsquo;Very slow, dreamy&rsquo;, taken from his oratorio On a Clear Day, Pt. II. The full album is released digitally on 22 August and is now available for pre-order.<span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335557856&quot;:16777215,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}">&nbsp;
