This Christmas song that wasn’t. “Schneeflöckchen, Weißröckchen” is a children’s winter song written by Hedwig Haberkern in 1869. But over time it became a song that we sing during the Christmas season.
Es ist ein Ros entsprungen is a German Christmas carol dating back to the 16th century. The text hasn’t changed much in the last centuries, and the music has stayed the same since Praetorius wrote it in 1609.
