The way you sing "carol", Mr Slattery, is the loveliest thing I have heard this year. Thank you both for this sensitive and original arrangement and rendition. The stone effigies of Messrs Dowland and Peele must be smiling...
I heard this a few years back, and my sister and I just searched until we found this again yesterday... it has to be one of my favourite TH-cam videos!!! It is SO beautiful. Wow.
His golden locks Time hath to silver turned. O Time too swift! Oh swiftness never ceasing! His youth 'gainst Time and Age hath ever spurned, But spurned in vain; youth waneth by increasing. His helmet now shall make a hive for bees, And lover's sonnets turn to holy psalms. A man-at-arms must now serve on his knees, And feed on prayers which are Age's alms. And when he saddest sits in homely cell, He'll teach his swains this carol for a song: Beauty, strength, youth are flowers but fading seen; Duty, faith, love are roots and ever green.
I love how he blushed at the applause. Wonderful.

Has anyone found music for this gorgeous arrangement?
Did Mr. Almond write the music aka create the arrangmenet?
Could someone please tell me what is the instrument Mr. Slattery is playing?
It looks like a Shruti box
@@chillwill12345 thanks!
Is that a kind of accordion? You can barely hear it though..
Yes, like an accordion and provides a drone.
