around the world. The song was originally a poem written by pastor Joseph Franz Mohr and composed by his friend Franz Xaver Gruber in early 19th century Austria. Pastor Mohr desperately needed a carol for the Christmas Eve midnight mass that was only hours away, and he hoped Gruber \u2013 a school teacher as well as the church\u2019s choir master and organist \u2013 could set his poem to music; he composed the melody in just a few hours on that Christmas Eve.\n<br><br>\nThe melody used today (a slow, meditative lullaby or pastorale) is slightly different from Gruber\u2019s original (a moderato tune in 6\/8 time and siciliana rhythm), particularly in the final strain.\n<br><br>\nTaylor\u2019s version omits the fourth and final verse of the initial version. Musically, it is also performed differently, replacing the instrumentation from piano to acoustic guitar. Furthermore, Taylor\u2019s vocals are also faster than traditionally recorded for the song.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f045f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"8f045f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9609324988608069\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9609324988608069\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"4793113019\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7031aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f7031aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Live Performances<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02c261d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"02c261d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTaylor performed \u201cSilent Night\u201d twice.

Night The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection EP (2007) \u201cSilent Night\u201d is cover song recorded by Taylor for her first extended play, The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection, released on October 14, 2007. Table of Contents Background and Lyrical Theme \u201cSilent Night\u201d (\u201cStille Nacht\u201d in its original German) is one of the most well-known traditional Christmas carols sung around the world. The song was originally a poem written by pastor Joseph Franz Mohr and composed by his friend Franz Xaver Gruber in early 19th century Austria. Pastor Mohr desperately needed a carol for the Christmas Eve midnight mass that was only hours away, and he hoped Gruber \u2013 a school teacher as well as the church\u2019s choir master and organist \u2013 could set his poem to music; he composed the melody in just a few hours on that Christmas Eve. The melody used today (a slow, meditative lullaby or pastorale) is slightly different from Gruber\u2019s original (a moderato tune in 6\/8 time and siciliana rhythm), particularly in the final strain. Taylor\u2019s version omits the fourth and final verse of the initial version. Musically, it is also performed differently, replacing the instrumentation from piano to acoustic guitar. Furthermore, Taylor\u2019s vocals are also faster than traditionally recorded for the song. Live Performances Taylor performed \u201cSilent Night\u201d twice. On November 28, 2007, she sang her rendition of the song at the famous Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree in New York City. On December 25, 2007, her second performance aired during the Today Show. Lyrics [Verse 1] Silent night, holy night All is calm and all is bright Round yon virgin mother and child Holy infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace [Verse 2] Silent night, holy night Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from Heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah Christ the Saviour is born Christ our Saviour is born [Verse 3] Silent night, holy night Son of God Love\u2019s pure light Radiant beams from thy holy face With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus Lord at thy birth Jesus Lord at thy birth [Outro] Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
