A great CD set if you're proficient in German.......2003-07-02

Fine performances on this 4-CD set of Bach's Christmas Oratorio, the first half (i.e., Parts 1-3) only, sung (as usual) in German. The 160 minutes of spoken introductions are in German. It's too bad that this set isn't available with the same introductions, but spoken in English, and with the text of Parts 1-3 printed in a booklet in both German and English.
