A Celtic
French Carol (He is Born)
is a spirited English
arrangement of the
traditional French Carol
Il est ne', le divin
Enfant. One of the most
famous songs of the
French repertoire, the
melody is derived from an
Eighteenth-Century Air de
Chasse (or hunting tune),
entitled La Tete Bizarde
(The Bizard Head). The
oldest known publication
of the tune is an organ
arrangement by Romary
Grosjean (1815-1888),
musicologist and organist
of the Cathedral of
Saint-Die'-des-Vosges, in
an 1862 collection of
carols entitled Airs des
Noels Lorrains. The
French text for the carol
was first published in
Dom Georges Legeay's
collection of ancient
carols, Noels anciens
(1875-1876). Il est ne',
le divin Enfant has been
translated into many
languages throughout the
world. One of the best
English translations
appeared in Walter Ehret
and George K. Evans'
collection The
International Book of
Christmas Carols
(1963).
