The poem “Silent Night” was put to music after the church organ broke right before Christmas. It’s believed that it was originally performed with a few voices and a lone guitar.
Last year a friend introduced me to Chris Botti, a trumpet player. I happened to see his Christmas CD on clearance after Christmas last year. I bought it and put it on the shelf. This year I finally opened it and took a listen. I immediately fell in love. In this version of “Silent Night” Chris captures the wonder and tenderness of this holy night.
