On Christmas Eve, 1906, Reginald Fessenden used a synchronous rotary-spark transmitter for the first radio program broadcast, from Brant Rock, Massachusetts. Ships at sea heard a broadcast that included Fessenden playing O Holy Night on the violin and reading a passage from The Bible.

I believe that the first song to be broadcasted on the radio was actually the Christmas Carol, "O' Holy Night." It was broadcasted in the year 1906 by a professor by the name of Reginald Fessenden (1866-1931). The broadcast was made from his Brant Rock, Massachusetts station to ships at sea on December 24, 1906, with the assistance of his wife Helen, his secretary Miss Bent and his associate Mr. Stein.

That is hotly debated amongst historians, but it was probably Canadian inventor Reginald Fessenden, who broadcast voice and music experimentally over the wireless, circa 1905. There is a well-known legend that he first did this on Christmas eve 1906, but evidence suggests he had already done it long ago-- some sources even say as far back as 1902.
