Das Neugeborne Kindelein is one of Buxtehude’s most charming and frequently performed pieces. Using a 1597 hymn by Cyriacus Schneegaß Buxtehude creates a joyous and dancelike praise of the newborn savior. It is set as a dialogue between the singers and instruments and makes for a very varied and enjoyable piece of Christmas music.
