Michael Prætorius must have loved Christmas music, because he published well over a hundred settings, scattered over several volumes of choral repertoire. We sing the first two stanzas of Wachet auf, as set by Prætorius in 1607, and the final stanza in an exquisite chorale setting by Johann Sebastian Bach from his cantata of the same name (No. 140), written in Leipzig in November 1731.
