@@JuniorSamples-r8z I have to say having listened three times I only hear a great mix of organ and piano underlying some lovely harmony singing and a fine organ intro; and all at a good speed. I'm quite converted to Hyfrydol as the tune for this hymn. Normally in the UK we'd use Stainer's Cross of Jesus. I think I'll go American/Welsh on Sunday!
Who hurt you my dear. I can assure you he reads music. A lot of it. At a very high level. Please feel free to post your performances so that we may enjoy your expertise. And please remember that you are viewing a musical offering to God.
I didn't say that he didn't know how to play, and yes I do believe that he was making music for our creator. Problem is, that many of us would like to join in and sing with the music, but if an organist plays something different than what is written and the general public is used to then it throws a large road block for enjoyment. Of course it could be that the original writer of the music had it all wrong and that much needed to be adjusted, but I kind of like what I was taught when I grew up. Now if the organist wanted to do an organ solo and mix things up, that's up to him.
@@carlnorg2594What you probably don’t realize is that the arrangement used here was actually made by Samuel Metzger (former organist at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Ft Lauderdale, FL and currently Organist at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Nashville, TN) who has made some if not all the best hymn arrangements I’ve ever heard
May i know which tune this is ? i preffer this more to other tunes like Cross of Jesus & Stuttgart
The tune is Hyfrydol- The United Methodist Hymnal #196. Text: Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus. Author: Charles Wesley. Tune: HYFRYDOL.
Why Advent when its Christ the King?
Decision by pastor. We aren’t strictly liturgical. We did Christ the king Sunday on November 19.
Dont like the screens at all
Too bad the organist has difficulty reading music.
Reharmonization is hard. Please post a link to YOUR performance. :-D Put up, or shut up.
