With dramatic brilliance and deeply touching melodies, the work brings to life the fascinating legends surrounding the life and deeds of Saint Nicholas. This high-quality choral score from the prestigious publisher Boosey & Hawkes features bilingual text (German/English), making it the perfect foundation for both rehearsals and performances.
