​The Plays from Oberufer 
 The Christmas plays, performed by local inhabitants of the small Austrian village on the Danube, go back hundreds of years. They were brought to light by Karl Julius Schröer who lived in the area and went to a performance in 1853. They are regularly performed in Waldorf Schools and Camphill Communities, and the original music by Leopold van der Pals, commissioned by Rudolf Steiner, remains the most well-loved version of the songs. 
 This new edition by Andrew Dyer, Jonathan Reid and Anna Smith, uses a largely new translation, though some sections of the original translation by A. C. Harwood are included. It is as close to the original German as possible, and the music is edited to fit with the English words.
 In recognition of the fact that a few of the songs may be pitched rather high for some singers, the score of the Three Kings' Play includes lower transpositions of those songs.
