Story behind the song
This piece is made up of three enduring tunes from long ago. The first, a Catalan carol, Fum, Fum, Fum, is presented in various textures and color combinations. The First Noel follows, beginning simply with a brass quintet, then expanding to a majestic full band version. The tempo then quickens to the dance-like and lighthearted Noel Provencal, and the piece ends with a festive fortissimo.
