Notes: This is a fresh arrangement of Dan Kantor’s wonderful Christmas song Night of Silence.
Unique to this arrangement is the multi-lingual nature of the piece: there is a Spanish verse, and the
original German text for “Silent Night” is also included. There are many different possibilities for
performance; the recording of this arrangement on “Star Child” demonstrates one of many
possibilities.
