Virtual Circle: JAMES WAY & THE ASSEMBLED COMPANY- SCHÜTZ A CHRISTMAS STORY
17/12/2020

Join us for a festive concert during the holiday season on Monday 28 Decemeber 19:30. Schütz’s ‘Christmas story’ is a charming and succinct telling of the Christmas narrative. Unjustly neglected next to the more popular Christmas Oratorio by J.S Bach and Handel’s Messiah, this quasi-dramatic retelling of the Christmas story is a joyful series of musical tableaux that deserves great exploration. In association with Barbara Hannigan’s Equilibrium Young Artists this pre-recorded performance is brought to you by James Way and The Assembled Company from St George’s Hanover Square, London.
