A review of classic Christmas songs!Jesu Joy Of Man's DesiringSomeone once visited the Japanese conductor Seiji Ozawa and asked him to recommend an introductory piece of classical music. He said: "Then listen to this song 'Jesus, the Joy of Human Desire'. If you still can't resonate with it after listening to it two or three times, then you can give up appreciating classical music." Silent Night "Silent Night" is the lyrics written by Joseph Mohr, a priest of a small country church in a small place in Austria in 1816. The composer Franz Gruber is an unknown music teacher in the local area. O Come, All Ye Faithful "Adeste Fideles" (Latin: Adeste Fideles), or simply "Adeste Fideles" (from the first line of the lyrics), is a hymn tune composed by John Francis Wade in 1743. The origin of the song is unclear, but it may have been written as early as the 13th century. Frederick Oakeley translated some of the lyrics from Latin into English in 1841, and William T. Brooke (1848-1917) later added English translations of some of the lyrics. John Julian's Dictionary of Hymnology states that the psalm has eight stanzas. A large number of singers have sung this song so far, and it has become a common Christmas music. Joy to the World "Joy to the World" is a Christmas carol written by Isaac Watts in 1719. The original text has seven independent sections. The existing audio material is a shortened version of the original text. The message is that joy and love replace sin and sorrow. This hymn was widely sung. O Holy Night This is a famous Christmas carol, which was composed by Adolphe Adam in 1847 to music based on the French poem "Midnight at Christmas". The author of the original poem was a winemaker, Placide Capo (1808-1877), who was also a poet. Hark! Hark! The Herald Angels Sing Also known as "The Newborn King Song", it is a famous Christmas song composed by Frith Mendelssohn and written by Charles Wesley. "Hark! The Angels Sing" is a profound Christmas poem describing the birth of Jesus. It contains pure doctrine and rich quotations from the scriptures. It is one of the 6,500 hymns written by Charles Wesley. Away in a Manger The Manger Song was written by Martin Luther and tells the story of the birth of baby Jesus in a manger. The melody of the song is soft and beautiful, especially suitable for children. Messiah "Messiah" composed by Handel can be said to be the most sung oratorio in the world. "Messiah" is a work that includes the Old Testament and the New Testament, focusing on spirituality and thinking about the savior Messiah. It writes about the birth, suffering, and resurrection of Christ, but has no storyline and is narrated in an indirect and symbolic way. O Little Town Of Bethlehem Hundreds of years before Jesus was born, a prophet named Micah predicted that the Savior would be born in Bethlehem. Hundreds of years later, a virgin named Mary became pregnant by the Holy Spirit and gave birth to a baby boy, whom she named Jesus. After a while, the Roman Emperor Augustus ordered a national census. Joseph (Mary's husband) took Mary, who was about to give birth, to Bethlehem to register her household registration. When they arrived in Bethlehem, all the inns in the city were full, so they had to spend the night in a stable. That night Mary gave birth to a baby. She wrapped the baby in cloth and laid it in a manger. The manger became the cradle of Jesus Christ. |
