Bach's majestic Orchestra Suite No 3 in D Major features 3 trumpets, oboes and strings.
Two glorious Handel coronation anthems follow: The King Shall Rejoice and Zadok, the Priest.
Bach's Christmas cantata Der Mund ist voll Lachens provides the perfect Christmas mood with its 3 trumpets, 4 vocal soloists, choir and orchestra.
Leading NZ vocal soloists, Elizabeth Mandeno (soprano), Christie Cook (alto, based in London), Iain Tetley (tenor), James Harrison (baritone) join the Bach Musica NZ chorus and orchestra, conducted by Rita Paczian.
"In the final chorus Rita Paczian once again demonstrated her tremendous musicality and talent, where Bach Musica NZ’s artistry is impressively demonstrated by orchestra and chorus members - this with their complete immersion into Bach’s music."
