Choirs, Orchestra, Pipe Organ and Audience.
This is a 33 year tradition, sung at massed schools charity concerts on the Sydney Town Hall.
The origins of this English Christmas carol go back 800 years. "O Come, All Ye Faithful", also known as "Adeste Fideles", is a Christmas carol that has been attributed to various authors. The earliest printed version is in a book published by John Wade in 1751.
The original four verses of the were extended to a total of eight, and these have been translated over the centuries from the original Latin into many languages. Some verses are omitted or words changed to suit the time of year when O Come All Ye Faithful is sung.
In 1841, an English Catholic priest translated the hymn into English as "O Come All Ye Faithful". This version has became widespread in English-speaking countries.
Our arrangement is by Sir David Willcocks, in 1961. O Come All Ye Faithful is sung in ancient English churches, most notably as the second last hymn sung at the "Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols" every Christmas, by the very famous Choir of King's College, Cambridge.
