Summary:

Christopher Schaldenbrand as Albert and Lyubov Petrova as Sophie co-star, and Jacques Lacombe conducts.

Prélude
Assez! Assez!
Noël! Jésus vient de naître
Alors, c'est bien ici
O nature, pleine de grâce
Jésus vient de naître!
O spectacle idéal d'amour et d'innocence
Sophie!
Albert! Toi de retour?
Elle m'aime ... Quelle prière de reconnaissance et d'amour
Interlude
Il faut nous séparer
Mais vous ne saver rien de moi
Vous avez dit vrai!
Rêve! Extase! Bonheur!
Charlotte! Charlotte!
Prélude
Vivat Bacchus! Semper vivat!
Trois mois! Voici trois mois que nous sommes unis!
Un autre est son époux!
J'aurais sur ma poitrine
Au bonheur dont mon âme est pleine
Frère, voyez le beau bouquet!
Ai-je dit vrai?
Ah! qu'il est loin ce jour
Oui! ce qu'elle m'ordonne
Mais venez donc! Le cortège s'approche
Werther! Werther!
Je rous écris de ma petite chamber
Des cris joyeux d'enfants
Bonjour, grande soeur!
Ah le rire est béni!
Va! Laisse couler mes larmes
Tiens! Charlotte, crois-moi
Ah! Mon courage m'abandonne!
Oui, c'est moi! Je reviens!
Toute mon âme est là!
Pourquoi me réveiller
N'achevez pas! Hélas!
Ah! Moi! Moi! Dans ses bras!
; Prends de deuil, ô nature!
Werther est de retour
La nuit de Noël
Non! Tu n'as rien fait que de juste et de bon
Et, moi, Werther, et moi je t'aime!
Noël! Noël! Noël!
Ah! Ses yeux se ferment ... J ésus vient de naître.
