From her Tidings television special, broadcast nationally each Christmas holiday season for years, (starting in 2003), Canadas Allison Crowe performs the traditional carol, Silent Night - accompanied by Dave Baird (bass) and Kevin Clevette (percussion). I have a new favourite version of Silent Night. ~ John Kimantas, Nanaimo News Bulletin (Canada) A much-loved live-in-the-studio version of this song is on Allison Crowes Tidings CD album. Silent Night Words: Joseph Mohr, 1792-1848; trans. by John F. Young, 1820-1885 (sts 1, 2, 3) and anon. (st 4) Music: Franz Gruber, 1787-1863 Tune: STILLE NACHT, Meter: Irr. Arranged and performed by Allison Crowe Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright round yon virgin mother and child. Holy infant, so tender and mild, sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace. Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight; glories stream from heaven afar, heavenly hosts sing Alleluia! Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born! Silent night, holy night, Son of God, loves pure light; radiant beams from thy holy face with the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord, at thy birth, Jesus, Lord, at thy birth. Silent night, holy night, wondrous star, lend thy light; with the angels let us sing, Alleluia to our King; Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born! music.allisoncrowe/track/silent-night
