Also available for SATB Voices (CM9503), TBB Voices (CM9636), and SSA Voices (CM9528).A Celtic French Carol (He is Born) is a spirited English arrangement of the traditional French Carol Il est ne', le divin Enfant. One of the most famous songs of the French repertoire, the melody is derived from an Eighteenth-Century Air de Chasse (or hunting tune), entitled La Tete Bizarde (The Bizard Head). The oldest known publication of the tune is an organ arrangement by Romary Grosjean (1815-1888), musicologist and organist of the Cathedral of Saint-Die'-des-Vosges, in an 1862 collection of carols entitled Airs des Noels Lorrains. The French text for the carol was first published in Dom Georges Legeay's collection of ancient carols, Noels anciens (1875-1876). Il est ne', le divin Enfant has been translated into many languages throughout the world. One of the best English translations appeared in Walter Ehret and George K.

This Christmas carol of ancient European origin begins O Sanctissima and was intended as a tribute to the virgin Mary. A 19th-century translation by Falk gave us the words O How Joyfully that are typically associated with this carol. In addition to its colorful history, this carol has a very warm and expressive character. In this setting by Alfred Reed, the lilting melody is interwoven with a heroic trumpet counter-melody. Das Weihnachtslied O du fröhliche ist sehr alt und war ursprünglich einmal ein Lied zu Ehren der Jungfrau Maria. Sein warmherziger und ausdrucksvoller Charakter machen es bis heute zu einem der bekanntesten und beliebtesten Lieder der Weihnachtszeit. Alfred Reed verwob in seiner Bearbeitung die fröhliche Melodie mit einer heroischen Trompeten-Gegenstimme und schuf so einen einfachen, aber wirkungsvollen Programmpunkt für das nächste Weihnachtskonzert.O du fröhliche (Ô nuit bienveillante) est un des plus célèbres noëls allemands. Sa mélodie s’inspire d’un air traditionnel sicilien qui accompagne la prière O Sanctissima, une prière chantée et dédiée la Vierge Marie. En 1816, Johannes Daniel Falk écrit un texte allemand. C’est désormais sous la forme d’un chant de Noël que la prière effectuera le tour du monde. La version d’Alfred Reed reste fidèle la beauté du thème original.
