Added by douglas-brooks-davies, 01 Dec 2012 This arrangement of the much-loved Christmas classic offers the original melody, as sung on continental Europe, set to the English language words. These words belong to the later 19th century, inaccurate, version of the tune, which means that very few English speakers are aware of the beauty of Gruber's original melody. It is here set for SATB choir, guitar (as in the original), optional keyboard and two obbligato flutes. Sheet central : | Douce nuit, Sainte nuit (Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht) (342 sheet music) | |
