“The idea behind this song is to remind everyone, for all those who have forgotten, how colourful and exciting Christmas was during their childhood. Christmas is a magical time and, after all, no matter how old we are, we are all still children at heart.” These words were written by Chris de Burgh about his 2009 hit, The Bells of Christmas, inspired by Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Simon Fahnholz has now made an excellent version of this Christmas hit for concert band.Voor iedereen die vergeten is hoe bont en levendig de kerst in zijn jeugdjaren was. Kerst is een betoverend feest. Diep in ons hart zijn we allemaal nog kinderen, ook al zijn we al lang volwassenen.” Dit zei Chris de Burgh over zijnkersthit van 2009 waarin hij zich liet inspireren door de prachtige kerstverhalen van Charles Dickens.Die Idee dieses Songs ist, allen die vergessen haben, wie bunt und lebendig Weihnachten in ihrer Kinderzeit war, dies noch einmal vor Augen zu führen. Weihnachten ist ein Zauber und wir sind im tiefsten Herzen doch alle große Kinder, auch wenn wir längst erwachsen sind.“ Dies sind Chris De Burghs Worte über seinen Weihnachts-Hit von 2009, zu dem er sich von Charles’ Dickens Weihnachtsgeschichte inspirieren ließ. « Le message de cette chanson, en fait, est de rappeler ceux qui l’aurait oublié, que Noël était, du temps de leur enfance, une fête chatoyante et vivante. Au plus profond de nous-même, et même si nous avons grandi et que nous soyons devenus des adultes, nous avons gardé notre coeur d’enfant, alors n’oublions pas que Noël est une fête magique. » Voici un aperçu des paroles de la célèbre ballade The Bells of Christmas (inspirée de l’illustre roman de Charles Dickens), chantée par Chris de Burgh en 2009.“Il messaggio di questa canzone è di ricordare a coloro che l’avessero dimenticato, com’era il Natale quando erano bambini, una festa vivace e calda. Anche se siamo cresciuti e divenuti adulti, abbiamo mantenuto il cuore di bambini, non dimentichiamo allora che il Natale è una festa magica”. Ecco un estratto del testo della ballata The Bells of Christmas, divenuta un grande successo del Natale 2009 e cantata da Chris de Burgh che si era ispirato al celebre romanzo di Charles Dickens.
