Variations on Christmas Carols

Description

On the initiative of flutist Anja Weinberger, Barbara Heller composed variations on Advent and Christmas carols for flute solo, which are also suitable for other melody instruments. Heller chose Maria durch ein’ Donrwald ging, Vom Himmel hoch, Auf dem Berge da wehet der Wind, Stille Nacht and Es ist ein Ros’ entsprungen as themes for her variations. Brought to life in a special way, the traditional carols are equally suitable for church services and Advent concerts. Anja Weinberger is a flutist and author.
