MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Have you ever been Christmas caroling? It's a tradition dating back to 1840s England and brings memories of hot cocoa, mittens, scarves, and songs that bring Christmas cheer. Some songs we’ve known from childhood date back to the middle ages. "Good King Wenceslas" was published in 1582 and based on an earlier 13th-century carol from Finland, with English lyrics written for the tune in the mid-1800s. Another well-known classic is "Silent Night,” written as a poem by Joseph Mohr. The song was first performed on December 24, 1818, at St. Nicola Church in Austria. Did you know that on December 24, 1906, a violin rendition of "O Holy Night" became the first audio broadcast by AM radio transmitted to ships at sea? While it seems that nearly every pop singer is recording Christmas songs, these old carols are cherished in our memories. Many younger generations may not be familiar with Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Andy Williams, Rosemary Clooney, or Gene Autry. Still, these were some of the most famous voices on the airwaves in the mid-1900s. They helped popularize Christmas songs over the radio and on movie screens. What are your favorites? Do you have them playing in the background today?
From the families here at US Wellness Meats, we wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas! May you have peace, love, and joy in your homes. Thank you to our patrons who have helped make this a joyful 2022.
