Program Notes:
This brief Christmas setting features both an English carol (“The First Noel,” collected by Sir John Stainer 1840-1901) and a French carol (“Noel Nouvelet,” French Traditional). Both carols are joyfully presented and represent the news (nouvelet) or good news of the Gospel.
Since Noel Nouvelet is not as well-known as The First Noel, the text is given below:
Noel nouvelet! Sing we this new noel!
Thank we now our God and of his goodness tell;
Sing we Noel to greet the newborn King:
Noel nouvelet! This new Noel we sing!
