about
This beautifully haunting arrangement brings a fresh sound to the hymn, originally by German composer Michael Praetorius (1609). It is arranged simply, intentionally "up close," raw, and vocally forward. Think AIison Krauss and Imogen Heap, with a little Enya.
lyrics
Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming from tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse’s lineage coming, as men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter,
When half spent was the night.
Isaiah ’twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind;
With Mary we behold it, the virgin mother kind.
To show God’s love aright, she bore to men a Savior,
When half spent was the night.
Oh night, Oh night
Silent Night
O Savior, Child of Mary, who felt our human woe,
O Savior, King of glory, who dost our weakness know;
By grace bring us, we pray, into your courts in Heaven,
And to the endless day!

I'm swept into the nuance of noise, tone, tension and release, in this post-rock narrative. Intuitively arranged, superbly mixed. My only complaint is that there aren't more tracks to enjoy! Caitelen
