a song's journey

The first time Silent Night was sung on american soil was on christmas day 1839 in NewYork, next to the trinity church at the Hamilton memorial.

This weekend we recreated the journey of the Rainer singers, a tyrolian family who went on a trip of a lifetime, spreading the songs and culture of Austria. We filmed the family singing various songs, including Silent Night, before and during their journey from Tyrol to Germany to New York.
