Story behind the song
We transitioned and arranged this classical-styled Christmas medley for solo piano from orchestral scores. Three Christmas classics are interwoven: “Choral Prelude No. 2,” from JS Bach’s Christmas Oratorio (BWV 645); “Wachet auft, ruft uns die Stimme, ” the Gavotte Movement from JS Bach’s Orchestral Suite No. 3 (BWV 1068); and the traditional hymn “Hark the Herald Angels Sing,” adapted from the “Festgesang Cantada” by F. Mendelssohn.
