Hannes M Schalle 200 YEARS OF SILENT NIGHT THE STORY OF THE MOST FAMOUS CHRISTMAS SONG GIVEN BY THE GREATEST VOICES 90 MINUTES | ULTRA HIGH DEFINITION | DOLBY DIGITAL a film by Hannes M Schalle WORLD WIDE RELEASE CHRISTMAS 2018 ‘Silent Night’ the film, is being shot between December 2017 and March 2018 in and around wintry Salzburg; the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the setting of ‘The Sound of Music’ - and also the birthplace of ‘Silent Night’, the world’s most famous Christmas carol. Additional shooting locations include New York, Berlin, Vienna, London, Prague, Florence, Los Angeles as the home of our featured artists. They will share Christmas as it is celebrated in their home, revealing traditions, performing their favorite Christmas Song and of course talking about their personal relationship to ‘Silent Night’. Linking these stories will be the history of ‘Silent Night’. Its original creation in 1818 is being dramatically reconstructed and we’ll follow the carol’s incredible journey around the world. We’ll re-enact the incredible moment when this song for peace, actually caused a cease-fire on the frontline trenches of the First World War. And we’ll capture the moment when Bing Crosby’s unforgettable rendition of ‘Silent Night’ became a pop culture phenomenon in 1935, selling 30 million copies and becoming the Christmas songbook for countless music stars. A new version of this truly iconic carol, with all the below mentioned artists will be produced together with “We are the World” producer and multi-Grammy winner Humberto Gatica. At the heart of this unique moment in music history will be the World Orchestra for Peace along with renowned instrumentalists, the Vienna Boys choir and, as a grand finale, a ‘World Choir’. The master delivery is scheduled for November 2018. www.silentnight-movie.com Directed by: Hannes M Schalle Produced by: Moonlake Entertainment In collaboration with: Servus TV / BR / arte Proposed narrator: Sir Ian McKellen Cast (tbc): Michael Bublé, Lang Lang, Andrea Bocelli, Ed Sheeran, ...

Message. Presence. Joseph Mohr was born to an unwed mother on December 11, 1792, in Salzburg and baptized in the Salzburg Cathedral. Recognizing the young man’s talent, the vicar of the cathedral choir took Mohr under his wing, helping him with his educa- tion and fi nally his career as a priest. In 1816, he penned the lyrics to the song while on his fi rst assignment in Mariapfarr. Mohr met Franz Xaver Gruber, a teacher from Arnsdorf and the compos- er of the melody, when he moved to Oberndorf in 1817. Together they performed the song for the very fi rst time. This special exhibition touches on the history, message, and the continuing pres- ence of this world-renowned song. The exhibition is divided into six themes: the history of the song, the life stories of its creators, Mohr and Gruber, the tradition and distribution of the song, and the political and commercial instrumentalization.

  • “White Christmas”—Bing Crosby (1942) Added to the National Registry: 2002 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “White Christmas”—Bing Crosby (1942) Added to the National Registry: 2002 Essay by Cary O’Dell Crosby’s 1945 holiday album Original release label “Holiday Inn” movie poster With the possible exception of “Silent Night,” no other song is more identified with the holiday season than “White Christmas.” And no singer is more identified with it than its originator, Bing Crosby. And, perhaps, rightfully so. Surely no other Christmas tune has ever had the commercial or cultural impact as this song or sold as many copies--50 million by most estimates, making it the best-selling record in history. Irving Berlin wrote “White Christmas” in 1940. Legends differ as to where and how though. Some say he wrote it poolside at the Biltmore Hotel in Phoenix, Arizona, a reasonable theory considering the song’s wishing for wintery weather. Some though say that’s just a good story. Furthermore, some histories say Berlin knew from the beginning that the song was going to be a massive hit but another account says when he brought it to producer-director Mark Sandrich, Berlin unassumingly described it as only “an amusing little number.” Likewise, Bing Crosby himself is said to have found the song only merely adequate at first. Regardless, everyone agrees that it was in 1942, when Sandrich was readying a Christmas- themed motion picture “Holiday Inn,” that the song made its debut. The film starred Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby and it needed a holiday song to be sung by Crosby and his leading lady, Marjorie Reynolds (whose vocals were dubbed). Enter “White Christmas.” Though the film would not be seen for many months, millions of Americans got to hear it on Christmas night, 1941, when Crosby sang it alone on his top-rated radio show “The Kraft Music Hall.” On May 29, 1942, he recorded it during the sessions for the “Holiday Inn” album issued that year.

Su interés por la música nació cuando tenía 6 años. Un video grabado por su padre, en el que Camila interpretaba “Gracias a la vida” de Violeta Parra, y que fue subido a YouTube, comenzó a hacerla conocida a los 14 años.

Debido a su éxito, se convirtió en la interprete más `stremeada´ en Spotify, alcanzó el #1 del chart de radios de artistas nacionales y logró ser single de Platino Digital. Desde entonces, la carrera de Camila Gallardo se ha llenado de elogios y éxitos. En 2017 participó en la Obertura del 58º Festival de la Canción de Viña Del Mar, donde fue parte del homenaje a Violeta Parra, en el centenario de su natalicio.
