30 November 2017 at 7:30pm Scottish Chamber Orchestra Christmas Oratorio at The Queen’s Hall
JS Bach: Christmas Oratorio Parts 1, 2, 3 sung in German
Jonathan Cohen: conductor/harpsichord; Soraya Mafi: soprano; Paula Murrihy: mezzo soprano; Samuel Boden: tenor (Evangelist); Neal Davies: bass baritone; SCO Chorus; Gregory Batsleer: chorus director
Picture nativity scenes by a great master, a Breughel or a Botticelli: landscapes filled with angels, people and animals; colour, movement, human touches and tiny incidental details all animated and elevated to a higher level by the mystery of the Holy Child at the heart of the scene. This is what Bach translates into such personal and colourful music in his Christmas Oratorio – a lavish sequence of choruses and arias featuring wonderful solos for the instrumentalists. Outstanding soloists under the direction of Jonathan Cohen, himself one of Britain’s finest young interpreters of Bach, promise an exceptional evening.
PRE-CONCERT INSIGHTS: 6.30pm Dr John Kitchen (City of Edinburgh Organist) discusses Bach’s Christmas Oratorio.

The fabulously talented Worbey and Farrell take to the stage at the Usher Hall. Tickets here.
Worbey & Farrell are internationally acclaimed concert pianists with a wicked sense of humour. The Edinburgh-based duo have performed in over 150 countries and achieved millions of hits on YouTube with their utterly sensational piano playing and barnstorming blend of sparky humour.
We met them after a Fringe show and got them to ‘pretend play’ our pretend piano….they are hugely entertaining.
