Berlioz’s L’Enfance du Christ is a work of profound humanity. This sacred oratorio charts the Holy Family’s flight into Egypt with music of tenderness, grace and dramatic intensity.
Radiant choral writing and intimate orchestration create a timeless meditation on exile and hope – a poignant masterpiece from one of music’s great storytellers.
