About this album

Around the birth of 'the saviour' Bach composed a variety of musical themes with different flavours and functions, often coming back to the same chorale scheme, sometimes creating completely original pages. Throughout such a great diversity of textures and colours stand out as constants the emotions of joy and astonishment surrounding the mystery of Jesus Christ's birth . Pipe-organ teacher from Alessandria conservatory “A. Vivaldi” Letizia Romiti offers in this CD some of the best known pages from memorables Bach's Christmas compositions.
