"Composed by Adolphe Adam in 1847, "O Holy Night" is one of the most beloved Christmas songs in classical music. The original lyrics, written in French by Placide Cappeau, were commissioned for a Christmas service in a small French town. In 1855, John Sullivan Dwight, an American abolitionist, translated the song into English. Dwight viewed the songs message as a metaphor for the fight against slavery, which contributed to its popularity in the United States. In this version, the composition was arranged for Contrabass and Piano by Harry Walker.
