about

Originally part of the choral work Shchedryk by Ukrainian composer Mykola Dmytrovich Leontovych (1877-1921), first performed at Kiev University in December 1916. English lyrics were added in 1936 by Peter J. Wilhousky (1902-1978), a composer, lyricist and conductor who worked with Arturo Toscanini on NBC radio. “The title chosen by New Jerseyite Wilhousky was ideal, for ‘Carol of the Bells’ is not only extremely suitable as a characterization of the melody, but also is completely harmonious with the old Slavic legend on which Shchedryk is based. At midnight on the night Jesus was born, the legend claims, every bell in the world rang out in his honor.” – William Studwell in The Christmas Carol Reader
