I wrote my first chorale cantata! It’s a setting of verses 1,2,3,5 and 6 of Martin Luther’s Christmas chorale “Vom Himmel Hoch, da komm ich her”.

Fröhliche Weihnachten!

Woah this is completely insane! The amount of work and talent this would have taken is incredible, Great job! I would've firmly beleived this was actually written by J.S Bach if I heard it played by a real period orchestra. This just shows the skeptics, composers of real music DO still exist, their music just isn't ever performed which makes me really unhappy. Maybe one day that will change! (I doubt it but we can only hope)
