The Christmas cantata (Une Cantate de Noël) is the last work of Swiss composer Arthur Honegger.

Process of the composition
Originally this music seemed to be the Passion play that I came up with the idea of in about 1945, but was not completed in the form called the Passion play. And I was largely late, and completed a planned date with this work and, in 1953 when Honegger who had already suffered from a heart trouble had own death close at hand, passed away in 1955.
Premiere
On December 18, 1953, I was given the first public performance in Basel by Paul Sacher conduct, Basel Chamber Orchestra, Derrick Olsen (baritone), Basel room chorus.
Formation
A baritone solo, a child chorus (but unison), mixed chorus, flute 2 (substitute 1 that I beat and pay a piccolo) oboe 2, clarinet 2, bassoon 2, horn 4, trumpet 3, trombone 3, a harp, string music five copies, an organ. In addition, there is never the part sounding by all complete ensembles that I include all the solo, the chorus, the orchestral music, the organs. All ensembles only for orchestral musics are slightly seen in a postlude.
Summary of the work
French, German, Latin is used for the text like Swiss Honegger.
The whole is greatly divided into three, and it is thought like a "Christ birth" "paean" in "the dark times". However, it needs to be thought that I rearrange this in the background in the times like a "war" "peace" "human being paean".
The beginning, an organ let being heavy and a dissonance sound. A cello works fragmentarily, and fearful ヴォカリーズ emerges for a chorus. This part is regarded as strange E minor. A male voice sings "デ professional feces D" (De Profundis) solemnly while a woodwind instrument intertwines with each other and is delivered to a woman's voice. However, it becomes ヴォカリーズ again and I quicken speed a little and swell with a fanfare. When cut down on speed on a top, and is sorrowful, and cry "the next sauce!"; of A major strange a child chorus is calm, and sing with a nursery rhyme-like melody. When this reply is repeated, it becomes the baritone solo, and, as for "Son of God, it is birth 給 collar" and a bright part to accept が outcome, a chorus than a hymn "root of Essai" for a child chorus before long. This part is E major. This reply continues for a while, too and becomes the slightly dance music-like part of strange A major. It is the part which is full of the complexity that I throw speed on last joke, ロ major key, and six-fourths beat and eighteen-eighths beat affect at the same time, and hymn "Silent Night" sounds. As for this part, French mixes with German. Following a baritone solo, the one in the child chorus plays "the voice of the angel". Baritone sings "the glow rear", and I quicken speed, and a chorus sings in C major loudly saying "applaud a master!". A choral of Philip Nicolai (Philipp Nicolai) that "there is a voice to call for waking", and Bach used に the cantata 140th is used as counterpoint in this part. When I sing, and a chorus delivers it, an organ and a trumpet echo magnificently and gradually become quiet. And I follow an opening chord adversely, and an organ disappears calmly while recollecting the piece of the melody which came out so far.
