In nativitatem Domini canticum (pitch as written)

You can freely and lawfully download a printable score for this Work from IMSLP - the Petrucci Music Library - though it may not be exactly the same as the one used to make the Midi Files below, and it probably won't be as good as a proper paid-for engraved and printed score.

Here is a "clickable" Table of the available Midi Files for this Work (for each File there is given the Barenreiter Score page and bar number). These Files have the pitch as written; if you want a "Baroque" pitch (transposed down a tone), try these alternative Files.

The preparation of these Files was commissioned by the Choeur d'Oratorio de Paris.
