1787 - 1863 Person Name: Gruber Ferencz Composer (melody) of "[Csendes éj, szentséges éj!]" in Református énekes-könyv Franz Xaver Gruber (1787-1863) was born into a linen weaver's family and studied violin and organ even though his father wanted him to work in the family business. In addition to serving as parish organist for St. Nicholas Church in Obendorf, he taught school in nearby Arnsdorf (1807-1829) and Berndorf (1829-1833).
