| Added by magataganm, 15 Nov 2014 Gabriel Urbain Fauré (1845 - 1924) was a French composer, organist, pianist and teacher. He was one of the foremost French composers of his generation, and his musical style influenced many 20th century composers. Among his best-known works are his Nocturnes for piano, the songs "Après un rêve" and "Clair de lune", and his Requiem. Faure composed "Noël" in 1885 clearly as an occasional piece; a little Christmas song destined for a performance where a harmonium was available to add a festive carillon color to the piano accompaniment. The original text embraces a traditional religiosity to which Faure responds dutifully at the end of the piece, although a certain atypical unctuousness hovers uncomfortably over the music unless it is performed with open-hearted innocence. Although this work was originally written for Piano, Harmonium and voice, I created this arrangement for Viola and Concert (Pedal) Harp to retain it's color and elegance (sans harmonium).
