The carol Silent Night began in Oberndorf Austria on December 23 1818 when Father Joseph Mohr and Franz Xavier Gruber faced a broken organ. They wrote a simple melody for guitar and led villagers in the first public singing. The song spread after an organ builder memorized it during repairs and introduced it at festivals in Leipzig and beyond. Mohr died poor in 1848 and Gruber lived 15 more years, also in modest circumstances.
