Christmas Question 5
Christmas Carol Trivia: Sacred Carols - This beloved Christmas hymn was originally in Latin, though it is usually sung in an English translation. It dates from the 18th century and a variation of the melody was once used in a French comic opera. It is nearly always used as the entrance hymn at Christmas services and masses.
The correct answer is 'O Come, All Ye Faithful'
This favorite hymn, originally sung to the Latin text "Adeste Fideles" (still in frequent use today) is of rather mysterious origin; both England and France have laid claim to it (it is also sometimes known as the "Portuguese hymn", having been popular in that country, but its origins are probably English). The melody, which is usually sung in 4/4 or 2/4 time, also exists in a version in triple meter. The "New Oxford Book of Carols" presents the melody of an aria from the 1744 French comic opera "Le Comte d'Acajou" which bears some striking similarities to "Adeste Fideles", but opines that the tune probably existed in some form before that, and that the original composer may have been Thomas Arne, best known for composing the air "Hail Britannia!" (Arne was an acquaintance of plainchant scholar Thomas Wade, among whose manuscripts the tune and Latin verses were originally found. As originally performed, the last line of each verse and the refrain were to have been repeated, which is seldom done today.
