Delight in holiday music by Bach and Gabrieli, brilliantly performed—as it was meant to be heard—and led by Raphaël Pichon, acclaimed director of the Paris-based ensemble Pygmalion, in his H+H debut. You’ll sense the awe and wonder of the Christmas story as it unfolds with the exultant “Magnificat,” Mary’s rapturous response to hearing that she will bear the Messiah. Gabrieli’s motet “Hodie” transports you to the realm of the angels proclaiming “Gloria in excelsis Deo.” And Bach’s cantata invites you to rejoice in the season!
