Part of Arthur Honegger`s last composition "Une cantate de noël" from 1952
- Quodlibet of different christmas carols
Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen,
Vom Himmel hoch ihr Engelein kommt,
O Du Fröhliche,
Stille Nacht,
Il est né le devine enfant

  • It's frustrating there are only two videos of this performance. This cuts off just before the baritone and child solo. This performance has such clarity in the contrapuntal vocal lines. Here's hoping that one day the rest of this will be posted to enjoy the entire piece.

  • Das ist ein schönes Stück! Kannte ich noch nicht. Toller Chor außerdem!

    Habe letztes Jahr selber einen a-cappella-Satz zu "Vom Himmel hoch, ihr Englein kommt" geschrieben, siehe "Videoantwort". Dadurch bin ich auf Euer Video gestoßen. Falls Ihr den singen wollt, kann ich ihn gerne schicken (gibts nämlich nicht im Laden). Weiterhin viel Spaß und viele Grüße

  • I played this in college. was in orchestra and have never heard it again. always liked it. thanks for posting.

  • Once one has become numb to decently lined up thirds, fourths or sevenths, this seems not tricky but touching truely intensly ;)

  • Inspired I am booking for the London Philharmonic's performance 5/12/09

  • BRAVO! I am so pleased to find the best parts of Honegger's work posted on YouTube. The beautiful "Une Cantate de Noel" is not performed very often, so it was a real holiday treat to be able to pull it up and listen any time during the Christmas Season and beyond.

  • I wanted this for years. Sung it ages ago. Tricky to listen to but fun to sing :) Thanks for sharing
