Stephen Bulla steckte das alte, ursprünglich aus Burgund des 17. Jahrhunderts stammende Weihnachtslied Pat-a-pan in ein völlig neues Gewand. Herauskam A French Noël, eine Fantasie für Blas orchester voller überraschender harmonischer Wendungen und Kontrasten in der Orchestrierung.

Bernard de La Monnoye (1641-1728) fut un avocat, poète, philologue et critique français, connu principalement pour ses Noëls bourguignons. Le plus connu parmi ces noëls est sans doute Guillô, pran to tamborin (Guillaume, prends ton tambourin) plus communément appelé Patapan, que l’on continue toujours mettre en musique et dont le texte fut traduit dans plusieurs langues. La mélodie est dansante et légère ; la musique est virevoltante.
