The edition of Bach’s "Christmas Oratorio" from Carus leaves nothing to be desired! This edition, prepared by renowned Bach scholar Klaus Hofmann, is both academically grounded and tailored to the needs of practical performance. It is based on Bach’s autograph score and the original performance parts. The conductor’s score includes a concise critical report in the appendix, offering information about the sources and their variants, which are also discussed in more detail if needed. In matters of articulation especially, Hofmann often arrives at new solutions that differ from those in earlier editions. / Parts I–VI: For the performance of all six parts, the following materials are available: full score (clothbound Carus 31.248/50 and paperback Carus 31.248/51), vocal score (Carus 31.248/53), large-print vocal score XL (Carus 31.248/54), choral score (Carus 31.248/55), and orchestral parts (in a practical set, Carus 31.248/58). All editions include both German and English singing texts. / Parts I–III: Planning to perform only Parts I–III? The full score (Carus 31.248/00), vocal score (Carus 31.248/03), choral score (Carus 31.248/05), and orchestral parts (Carus 31.248/19) for Parts I–III are available separately. These editions also contain both German and English singing texts. Additionally, for Parts I–III, a vocal score (Carus 31.248/04) and a large-print vocal score XL (Carus 31.248/02) are available, containing only the German singing text—particularly useful for singers with visual impairments. / Parts IV–VI: For Parts IV–VI, the vocal score (Carus 31.248/73), choral score (Carus 31.248/75), and orchestral parts (Carus 31.248/78) are available. These editions include both German and English singing texts. Please use the full score for Parts I–VI (clothbound Carus 31.248/50 or paperback Carus 31.248/51) as the reference score. This work (Parts I–VI) is also available in carus music, the choir app!
