The Oratorio de Noël is not only associated with the great Johann Sebastian Bach. Camille Saint-Saëns also wrote a magnificent work to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, which holds its place in the repertoire alongside the great choral pieces of the 19th century. The instrumentation is very original: the vocal part, accompanied by strings and organ, is enriched by a harp part, which gives this work an unforgettable lyrical atmosphere. However, this chamber-like quality is interspersed with more dramatic passages. Thus, this delicate balance between intimacy and theatricality is the essence of this work and explains its worldwide success.
