Augsburg Fortress

Chamber music for Christmas Eve! Two elegant settings of Christmas carols scored for solo instrument, keyboard and continuo. ANTIOCH (Joy to the World) is set as a sonata in four parts: Prelude, Andante Allegrezza, Pastorale, and Vîte. WEISSE FLAGGEN (When the Morning Stars Together) features a set of four variations on an 18th century German melody found in Tochter Zion, Cologne 1741. The edition includes score and separate parts for C or B flat instrument and basso continuo (viole da gambe, cello, bassoon, etc.). A perfectly gallant selection for an extended Christmas Eve prelude or a holiday concert!
