Eine Weihnachtsgeschichte
Kurt Gaeble has put together a musical Christmas story under the title “Bethlehem”, which contains the popular songs "Stern ueber Bethlehem“ (Star over Bethlehem), "Kleine Stadt Bethlehem" (Little Town of Bethlehem) and "In der Nacht von Bethlehem" (In the Night of Bethlehem). The focus of this Christmas story for wind orchestra, choir and narrator is the small, inconspicuous village of Bethlehem, which became the site of the divine miracle - and the star that shows the way with its bright rays and spreads the good news. Kurt Gaeble creates a fascinating "Bethlehem", with which musicians and listeners will be richly presented at Christmas time.
Narrator, choir (SATB) and wind orchestra
The sheet music edition also contains 10 choral scores.
The story and the narrator text comes from Markus Schoenberger.
