Yule Music

Blends Joy,

Reverence

Across the centuries, man has looked to music to express his happy feelings at Christmas time.

From the medieval "Hayl, Mary, ful of grace” and “Mervele noght, Josep” to the modern “White Christmas” and “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," songs have been a favorite part of Christmas celebrations.

In the tradition of Christmas music, there are simple carols, blending reverent wonder with quiet Joy — Martin Luther’s “Away in a Manger,” for instance, or the mid-nineteenth century hymns, “It Came upon a Midnight Clear,” “We Three Kings of Orient Are” and "O Little Town of Bethlehem.”

There are merry songs, celebrating the jolly mood of the Yuletide, such as the timehonored “Deck the Halls," or the modern “Rudolph” and “Frosty the Snowman.”
