Summary:
There would be no music for the villagers of Obendorf, Austria on the cold Christmas Eve of 1818. Ravenous mice had chewed a hole in the church organ. The priest jotted down the words for a Christmas song and asked the pianist to write a melody for it. Stille Nacht, known as "The Song From Heaven", has since become one of the most beloved pieces of music in the world, thanks to hungry mice!
