He had been organist of the fashionable Church of the Madeleine in Paris for just a year - a prestigious position - and the Oratorio was in a Major undertaking for his second Christmas there. The work was written in just twelve days between 4 and 15 December 1858. Despite Saint-Saëns's efforts in overseeing the publication of the Oratorio, it had various mistakes and omissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition attempts to correct these, and by close comparison with the various manuscript sources to present the work for the first time in a form as close to possible to Saint-Saëns's intentions. Where there are still ambiguities, square brackets have been used to indicate alternative or uncertain readings - in particular for the inclusion of extra details that somehow appeared in the printed edition after the preparation and correction of Saint-Saëns's final manuscript.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Edition Peters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42659508158599,"sku":"EP11052","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.editionpeterspublications.us\/ja\/products\/saint-saens-oratorio-de-noel-op-12-peters-1","provider":"Edition Peters Publications","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
