I Long after the i-ustom ofj Christmas was revived, the art . of carol singing languished. i ' A happy cliange occurred when. : in 1719, Di. Isaac Walts wroti- and introduced to his congrega tion the carol, "Joy to the World. This was the forerunner of mod- i ern Christmas carols. ! FOR CONCERT HALLS I Christmas music for the con- i cert halls began to be created af-' ter the Reformation. ; Italy intioduced the Christmas concerto, during the 17th and l.Sih centuries. Corelli's “Christ-, mas Concerto’’ is perhaps the i best known of this kin:i of music.l In Puritan England, the ora torio I.ecame a popular form of^ music, thought to represent the righteousness in man. Handel's "Messiah” was performed and admired for this expression of pious sentiment, with little con-l siiioration for its i-elationship to; the story of the Nativity. 1.^ - w REETINGS ^ ^ CZ^Wo'n US this moment, to send our sincere and hearty thanks and best wishes to all our friends and neighbors, whom we have served with pleasure and pride throughout the year.
