Every year, the Nederlands Kamerkoor festively heralds Christmas with Bach’s Christmas Oratorio in the Pieterskerk Leiden. This year, the Nederlands Kamerkoor works together with the German music ensemble Concerto Köln. The complete Christmas Oratorio will be performed: starting with the festive cantata for the First Day of Christmas, up until Epiphany. The ensembles are led by chief conductor Peter Dijkstra.
