It was written in 1818 by Joseph Mohr and Franz Xaver Gruber, assistant pastor and organist, respectively, of the aptly named St. Nicholas Church in the Austrian village of Oberndorf. It was an immediate success, and although it was never published, it soon entered into the repertoire of several touring folk groups. It is in the form of a lndler, a traditional Austrian folk dance, and for some time was passed off as a Tyrolean folk carol, much to the consternation of Gruber, who never received the proper credit during his lifetime. It was originally written for guitar accompaniment, but the story that this was due to a broken organ which could not be repaired in time for the Christmas service is charming but apocryphal.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Michael Moore, 2004\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Musicians Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46968605802790,"sku":"MPWD102","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/700000000MPWD102_d.jpg?v=1697516093","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/traditional-silent-night-1","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
