  • "O Holy Night" (also known as "Cantique de Noel") is a well-known Christmas carol composed by Adolphe Adam in 1847 to the French poem "Minuit, Chrétiens" (Midnight, Christians) by poet Placide Cappeau (1808-1877). The carol reflects on the birth of Jesus as humanity's redemption.
    It has become a staple of the Christmas celebration, here played on the Paramount 450 Virtual Organ on the Hauptwerk software platform. From a gentle start showing soft solo voices and shimmering Kimball strings, the piece grows to a thrilling final crescendo, with just a nod to the mighty John Rutter in the bridges.
    Wishing all of you a very safe and Merry Christmas !!

    Excellent interpretation - the richness of the theatre organ really brings so much more emotion to this carol!

      Thanks. I have added a midi interface made by midi boutique to allow it to connect to hauptwerk. These old Rodgers are consoles are very well made.

    Bravo, bravo, bravissimo! Thank you for your wonderful rendition of this, my favourite Christmas song, played on my favourite sample set. Do you live in the United States or in the UK ?

      @@imcg110 Boy, would I love to have a go on that organ! I hope to win a small prize in the lottery one day and get myself a 3 (or perhaps even 4) manual midi setup with the Paramount 450 virtual Wurlitzer sample set. Currently I own a Yamaha AR100 and I live in The Netherlands.
