Oratorio de Noël – Camille Saint-Saëns

The ‘Oratorio de Noël’, opus 112 was composed in 1858 and is one of the four oratorios he wrote. It is originally scored for five soloists (soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto, tenor and baritone), mixed choir, strings, harp and organ.

In this version the string-parts are transcribed to a wind-quintet.
