Cantique De Noël

Author: Placide Cappeau Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Minuit, chrétiens, c’est l’heure solennelle Lyrics: 1 Minuit, chrétiens, c’est l’heure solennelle Où l’Homme Dieu descendit jusqu’à nous Pour effacer la tache originelle Et de Son Père arrêter le courroux. Le monde entier tressaille d’espérance En cette nuit qui lui donne un Sauveur. Peuple à genoux, attends ta délivrance! Noël! Noël! Voici le Rédempteur! Noël! Noël! Voici le Rédempteur! 2 De notre foi que la lumière ardente Nous guide tous au berceau de l’Enfant, Comme autrefois une étoile brillante Y conduisit les chefs de l’orient. Le Roi des rois nait dans une humble crèche, Puissants du jour fiers de votre grandeur, À votre orgueil c’est de là que Dieu prêche. Courbez vos fronts devant le Rédempteur, Courbez vos fronts devant le Rédempteur! 3 Le Rédempteur a brisé toute entrave: La terre est libre et le ciel est ouvert. Il voit un frère où n’était qu’un esclave; L’amour unit ceux qu’enchaînait le fer. Qui Lui dira notre reconnaissance? C’est pour nous tous qu’Il naît, Qu’Il souffre et meurt. Peuple debout, Chante ta délivrance! Noël! Noël! Chantons le Rédempteur! Noël! Noël! Chantons le Rédempteur! Used With Tune: [Minuit, chrétiens, c’est l’heure solennelle]

Placide Cappeau

1808 - 1877 Author of "Oh, Holy Night" in Timeless Truths Placide Cappeau France 1808-1877. Born at 8 p.m. On 10/25/1808, the son of a cooper. He may have followed in his father's business, but when eight years old, a playmate accidentally shot him in the hand with a gun he was playing with, and the hand had to be amputated. He followed an academic career instead. The shooter's father paid for half his education, and he was able to attend town school and the College Royal d'Avignon. Despite his handicap, he was awarded a first prize in drawing there. He studied literature in Nimes, and law in Paris, and was licensed to practice law in 1831. Instead, he became a merchant of wines and spirits, but his focus was really on literature. A parish priest, Father Petitjean, in Cappeau's community, asked him to write a Christmas poem to celebrate the renovation of their organ, and he agreed to do it, despite being an avowed atheist and vocal anti-cleric. He researched the book of Luke and wrote the hyrics to “O Holy night”. An opera singer, Emily Laurie, saw the text and asked a Jewish friend of hers to compose music for it, which he, remarkably, did. She sung it at a midnight mass three weeks later, and parishoners raved, but when Catholic church leaders found out it was written by an atheist, they banned it. However, its popularity only grew. Cappeau authored 5 works, the last published in 1876. He was mayor of the town, Roquemaure, and he died there. A side story: In 1906 Reginald Fessenden, a 33 year-old university professor and former chief chemist for Thomas Edison, did something thought impossible. Using a new type of generator, he spoke into a microphone and for the first time in history a voice was broadcast over the airwaves. And he read, from the book of Luke, “And it came to pass in those days, that a decree went out from Ceasar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.” He began, in a clear strong voice. Shocked radio operators on ships and wireless owners at newspapers, used to Morse code heard over tiny speakers, were interrupted by a speaking voice reading Luke and had no idea where it came from. When the professor finished his reading, he picked up his violin and played “O Holy Night”.. the first song ever played over the air waves in the whole world. Imagine the surprise of listeners everywhere, never suspecting such a thing was possible. John Perry

Small Church Music

Editors: Placide Cappeau Description: The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs. Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted.
