00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:23.199
The story behind the titles history of
the Hymn or Holy Night, Who has

2
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:28.039
not sang, in addition to the
popular night of peace, the also known

3
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:38.320
Himno or holdiy Night in Spanish or
night Santa Santa, the beautiful night the

4
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:44.399
stars, the night when the Lord
was born the world involved was in their

5
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:54.759
disputes until God sent us to the
original Savior of France. Paradoxically, it

6
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:59.399
was forbidden to be played in the
churches of that European country because the author

7
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:03.680
became a socialist politician and the musician
never believed in Jesus, because he was

8
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:11.959
Jewish. It was adopted by the
abolitionist states of North America during the civil

9
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:17.599
war that confronted the North against the
South. The truth is that the song

10
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:23.519
was born at the request of a
Catholic clergyman who requested an original poetry on

11
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.719
the occasion of the Christmas of one
thousand eight hundred forty- seven. It

12
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:32.159
was so that classif Capot de Rockmail, then a wine seller and distributor in

13
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:37.879
a small French village, composed this
beautiful poetry and was honored to share his

14
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:47.519
talent in the church, which almost
never competed on a peaceful night, traveling

15
00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:51.400
by car to the French capital,
with his pen in hand and on a

16
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:57.719
notebook, Classic Cappo wrote Santa the
night, Beautiful, the stars, the

17
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:02.000
night when Mr But Plácit, who
witnessed the village life and the grudges and

18
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:09.639
vicissitudes of his people, continued to
write the world involved. He was in

19
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:15.120
his lawsuits until God sent us the
Savior. It was so that using the

20
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:22.400
Gospel of Luke as the basis of
his composition, he imagined being an eyewitness

21
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:24.960
to the very birth of Jesus.
A few hours after the trip and arriving

22
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:30.120
in Paris, this famous Christmas song
was already composed and ready to be presented

23
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:36.199
to the request of the cleric in
charge, but the composition was only in

24
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.560
poetry and therefore Lacid sought the support
of the musician Adolph Charles Adams to give

25
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:46.080
him the musical intonation. This beautiful
Christmas hymn was stopped singing in French Catholic

26
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:50.520
churches and chapels as it became known
that the author of the letter had converted

27
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:55.560
to socialism and the musician was nothing
less than the Jewish origin. It was

28
00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:00.680
so that the American writer, John
Sullivan, wide of discovering saw the richness

29
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.199
of the message and music of this
beautiful Hymn and introduced him to the United

30
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:10.960
States, a country in which he
was a fiery abolitionist. The Hymn returned

31
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.159
to Europe in one thousand eight hundred
and seventy- one and was played at

32
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:21.240
Christmas and in the midst of the
war that confronted the Franco Prussian armies in

33
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.159
the twenty- four- hour truce
that took place on the occasion of Christmas.

34
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:30.599
The truth. This fact allowed the
well- known Christmas song to return

35
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:35.479
to France as a sign of peace. The author of the music Adams had

36
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.199
already died and the author of the
lyrics Capoe and the American adopter Dwide were

37
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:44.120
already elderly. When on Christmas of
one thousand and nine hundred and six,

38
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.319
ho Holly Knight became the first song
to be broadcast through the radio waves and

39
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:53.479
cross the borders and distance that his
composer had never imagined
