Joy to the World! – Songs for the Christmas Season
Join the Bavarian Radio Chorus for a little trip around the world to explore various Christmas melodies.
In the repertoire are popular and well-known Christmas songs from England, USA, Latin America, Spain and Denmark, as well as typical German Christmas carols, such as “O Tannenbaum” and “O du Fröhliche”. All arranged for choir and orchestra by Howard Arman. Three highlights will be presented by opera-star Pavol Breslik. The filmic interpretation is performed by the well-known documentarian Alexander Saran, who has festively decorated Studio 1 at Bayerischer Rundfunk in Munich. Furthermore: he even has a surprise in store for the audience. Conductor Howard Arman will guide us through the programme with his British sense of humor and charm.
