    Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
    Praise Him, all creatures here below;
    Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host;
    Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

      Different hymn. That is not part of the Old Hundredth, despite being sung to its melody. It's often sung as a Doxology in Mainline Protestant churches.

    Sir David was a true gentleman of the first order, a gifted and peerless musician and an inspiration to so many choristers - including myself. I was very fortunate.

    The trumpet descant in this setting reminds me of the Last Post, in part, and perhaps because of that will probably always remind me of the "bugles calling for them from sad shires".
    Aching beauty.

      It sounds much better here, on a C trumpet, than on a standard Bb trumpet.

    All People That On Earth Do Dwell
    Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice,
    Him serve with fear, His praise forthtell;
    Come ye before Him and rejoice.
    The Lord, ye know, is God indeed;
    Without our aid He did us make.
    We are His folk, He doth us feed,
    And for His sheep He doth us take.
    Oh, enter, then, His gates with praise,
    Approach with joy His courts unto;
    Praise, laud, and bless His name always.
    For it is seemly so to do.
    For why? The Lord, our God, is good;
    His mercy is forever sure.
    His truth at all times firmly stood
    And shall from age to age endure.
    To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
    To God whom heaven and earth adore,
    From men and from the angel host
    Be praise and glory evermore.
    Words: William Kethe, late 16th century

      I've played it. It's hard not to feel the same way, which wouldn't be good, since you're pretty much out there alone. The fanfares at the end are actually more difficult, but the first trumpet has support there.

      www.firstplymouth.org/history indicates the church got a new organ in 1996, a few years after this concert. Perhaps it was the case that the combined forces overpowered the then organ. It is almost possible that the way the concert was miked and mixed misleads the viewer on the balance heard on the nave of the church.

    What's the venue. I'm guessing a large Methodist or Presbyterian Church. Possibly American Baptist or UCC, but that's less likely imho.

      You would be wrong about it not being UCC, because that is the denomination of First-Plymouth Church.

    Forget about that dirge God Save The Queen. Forget about Land of Hope and Glory, it's as Dead as mutton. And Rule Britannia is a buried history. But this is a pure unadulterated remaining belief that stands for what remains.

      It has nothing to do with Britain. It's a splendid hymn, but it isn't a national anthem.

    • @mikef5881
      @mikef5881 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      God Save the Queen is only a dirge when it's sung that way. Land of Hope and Glory (and Rule Britannia, for that matter) only suffer from archaic lyrics, but all three were written by accomplished composers, and deserve preservation - only in a more enlightened form.
