The **Christmas Oratorio** is a sacred choral work by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 248), composed in 1734, consisting of six cantatas performed on major feast days from Christmas through Epiphany. It musically narrates the birth of Jesus and the surrounding events, from the nativity to the adoration of the magi.
