Notes & Reviews:

The extraordinarily talented Aurelius Sängerknaben Calw youth choir brings Christmas early this year with a program of festive and reflective masterworks to make your holiday bright. In addition to timeless classics such as Vivaldi's Gloria and Bach's Christmas Oratorio, their carefully chosen program includes such rarities a selection for Baroque composer Gottfried August Homilius' own Christmas Oratorio, a beautiful excerpt from Rheinberger's "Stern von Bethlehem" as well as contemporary works for the holiday season by John Rutter and Leonard Bernstein. The Aurelius Sängerknaben Calw were founded in 1983 by Hans- Jörg Kalmbach. From simple beginnings the choir has established an extraordinary reputation as singers capable of both choral and solo performances. With a repetoire that ranges from Renaissance polyphony to complex contemporary scores, the Aurelius Sängerknaben have enchanted audiences around the world.
