The lyrics to "In The Bleak Mid-Winter" were written as a poem by Christina Rossetti before 1872 but were not published until after her death. Gustav Holst wrote a musical setting for this poem in 1906. <br />MicheMalou recorded their version for their album entitled "Snow On Snow" in 2004. They actually took the title from the lyrics which are as follows: <br />"In the bleak midwinter <br />Frosty wind made moan, <br />Earth stood hard as iron, <br />Water like a stone; <br />Snow had fallen, snow on snow, <br />Snow on snow, <br />In the bleak midwinter, <br />Long ago." <br />Michele Cook and Marie-Louise Norton played the Harps and Colin Norton played Electric guitar and Bass guitar. <br />The backdrop for this video was provided by Swiss Photographer, Eugen Kotoun. <br />The MP3 or album can be purchase by following this link: <br />http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/michemalou2
