Celebrate the season with a concert overflowing with Christmas joy and splendour. No work captures the spirit of a French Christmas more vividly than Charpentier’s Messe de minuit (Midnight Mass), an early Baroque masterpiece woven from the beloved French carols traditionally sung only at Christmas. Filled with infectious energy, warmth and festive dance rhythms, it is one of the most enchanting seasonal works ever composed. We then return to Bach Akademie Australia’s roots with two of J.S. Bach’s most uplifting Advent cantatas, music that radiates hope, wonder and joyful expectation in a way only Bach can.
