Weihnachts-Quodlibet

The "Christmas Quodlibet" by Gerhard Weihe, published by Zweiklang-Verlag, is a charming and skillfully crafted composition for four-part mixed a cappella choir. In the tradition of the quodlibet, the composer combines various familiar Christmas carols into a dense musical network in which the well-known melodies are sometimes heard one after the other and sometimes surprisingly simultaneously.

The work captivates with its playful touch and the festive mood that it brings to every Christmas concert. Thanks to the clear voice leading and the skillful combination of familiar carols, it offers both the singers and the audience an entertaining and joyful listening experience that musically underlines the diversity of the Christmas message.
