Rejoice, be glad! - Bach's Christmas Oratorio to sing along to (excerpts from cantatas I-III). It's that time again: drum rolls resound through the Berlin Cathedral, trumpets blare their fanfares and the large oratorio choir of the Berlin Cathedral Choir announces the motto of the Christmas classic par excellence.
