Discover how three gifted men who never met created one of Christmas's most joyful anthems—and why it wasn't even written as a Christmas song.
Isaac Watts was a young English rebel who dared to challenge centuries of monotonous church singing. When critics called his fresh approach "worldly and inappropriate," congregations couldn't get enough. One particular hymn he penned in 1719 had nothing to do with Christmas—it celebrated something entirely different. Yet somehow, over a century later and across an ocean, an American music educator stumbled upon Watts' words and paired them with a melody that echoed the great Handel's Messiah. The result? A song about Christ's Second Coming that became the most joyful Christmas anthem ever sung. How did these three men's separate gifts converge into "Joy to the World"? The story will surprise you.
This presentation features the jubilant piano music of Jason Tonioli, celebrating this timeless hymn of praise.
