The first concert, "Stille Nacht," is dedicated to the (primarily) German tradition that began with Michael Praetorius and was later taken up by the Romantics Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, and Gustav Mahler. The second concert, "Christmas Carols," brings together (primarily) Christmas carols from the British Isles.
