Sydnie Christmas adds a fresh touch to ‘O Holy Night’ with a stunning match-made-in-heaven recording

The carol ‘O Holy Night’ started life as a French Christmas poem, ‘Cantique de Noël’, written by poet Placide Cappeau in 1843 to celebrate the church organ in his home town, Roquemaure, being renovated. It was then set to music by French composer Adolphe Charles Adam, and was first performed as a carol in 1847 by the opera singer Emily Laurey.

American John Sullivan Dwight then translated it into English in 1855, and it became popular with abolitionists, in part because of its third verse.

Thank you for being so real and wonderful Sydnie you are such an inspiration. Merry Christmas to you and your family. I so look forward to the New Year and your music filling the world with love and magic when you sing. 

Dearest Sydnie: would love for you to do a Christmas Carol album. That would brighten up Christmas even more. You’re very gifted. A living angel on earth.

I want to hear Adele and Sydnie sing together. My dream over here in the dark Sweden!

Syd, my brother passed in May. He’s in Heaven. On the eve of his funeral, there was a star so bright. It lifted my spirits and now your singing this song brings good tears. Thanks & God bless

The voice of an angel. Can’t wait to see you achieve your goal. You so deserve it.
