Premiered in December 2005 in five sold-out performances. Praetorius' Christmas Vespers as compiled by Jeannette Sorrell brings to life the extraordinary world of Michael Praetorius. The cathedral resounds with the splendor of trumpets, sackbuts, virtuoso cornettos, antiphonal choirs, lutes, strings and recorders. Children's voices lead the forces in this haunting and joyous celebration of the Christ child.
