Weihnachten im deutschen Lieder

Here is a fascinating collection of Romantic German lieder by such composers as Reger, Humperdinck and Cornelius, composed after poems from Middle Ages to Heinrich Heine inspired by Christmas and the Advent time. The selection made by fantastic baritone Olaf Bär includes very rarely recorded material, such as Joseph Haas’ Krippenlieder (Nativity Songs).
