    I feel something different! A great sense of sadness - three weeks before Christmas 2023 - my brother passed away! I still feel that even today and almost 4 months after his funeral service! I used the second verse at it. We were still in the Christmas season and I will want to do this on the 6th December of this year! Because I want to!

      This had me almost in tears en route to Wells on the 376 bus. This afternoon. I am hoping that at the Christmas Carol service on the 23rd December to hear it and perhaps to sing some of it. My own self. My brother passed away just last week! And this carol has become somewhat more special.

    John Rutter is one of the greatest composers of his generation. Love the final acappella verse with the orchestra coming in on the verse. Lovely.
    Such a beautiful hymn.

    Although I sing in a small choir (8-10 voices at most), it is a piece like this that brings the feeling out and tears flowing.
    How I miss singing with my choir.

    It's a few more months since I wrote some words some three months ago. The sense of both grief and determination to do this carol - somehow - remains intact and I remain that resolute to do so! I hope that I get to do it! God willing I will!

    It’s about time he got a knighthood, he has written some of the loveliest music and songs, this is one of my favourites along with the Angel carol. I sing in a choir and get excited when we get to sing a Rutter hymn or carol

    • @britannia55
      @britannia55 Před 3 lety +12

      I have discovered that John Rutter turned down a Knighthood, he said that there are people more worthy to receive a Knighthood than himself. I say not in the eyes of the people that love your music

    As someone who is now involved with more modern worship, i must say I miss these times. Used to sing in a choir in the 80's, and we did this with Mr Rutter once. Beautiful!

      Bob: Back in 2007, I had the nerve to actually nominate Mr. Rutter for British knighthood. Imagine, a Yank thinking he could do such a thing! Well, it turned out my letter actually reached the desk of the lady of the house at Buckingham and I guess she was quite taken with my 150-word correspondence, as two British agencies followed up with letters to me, acknowledging my letter. Mr. Rutter later told me he was quite content with his OBE honor alone.

      @theemrsg Před 3 lety +3

      JK, I believe worship is always changing. Having different styles of worship is more a reflection of the diversity of the people God created, than people trying to be cool. I would never go to a church for tradition alone. The most important things are: is God leading me, and is the word of God taught faithfully. It doesn't matter what the worship is like if the teaching is leading you astray. Blessings

    • @jponz85
      @jponz85 Před rokem +1

      You're right Bob. Today's music just doesn't touch anything of the past. Something about modern music is lacking... doesn't have that feel anymore.

  • @guillermodelgadovelez1844

    Este villancico de John Rutter yo ni lo conocía ni lo había escuchado antes. Mas ahora, cada vez que lo escucho se me contrae el corazón de la emoción y casi me hace llorar, especialmente cada vez que las sopranos hacen esos crescendos en "Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo", y bueno, todas las demás voces son absolutamente magníficas, me parece como si este cántico hubiera sido compuesto expresamente para ellos, porque la excelsa delicadeza y el sentimiento que le imprimen, comenzando desde los pianíssimos hasta los crescendos, me hace escucharlo una y otra vez. A mí este villancico no me cabe ninguna duda de que permanecerá por muchísimas más generaciones, porque una melodía tan preciosa y de tan exquisita factura es absolutamente difícil de olvidar, y es tan profunda que debe quedarse en nuestro corazón para siempre.

    How do you capture
    The wind on the water?
    How do you count all the stars in the sky?
    How can you measure
    The love of a mother
    Or how can you write down
    A baby's first cry?
    Candlelight, angel light
    Firelight and star glow
    Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
    Gloria, Gloria in excelsis Deo!
    Angels are singing
    The Christ child is born
    Shepherds and wise men
    Will kneel and adore him
    Seraphim round him their vigil will keep
    Nations proclaim him
    Their Lord and their Saviour
    But Mary will hold him
    And sing him to sleep
    Candlelight, angel light
    Firelight and star glow
    Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
    Gloria, Gloria in excelsis Deo!
    Angels are singing
    The Christ child is born
    Find him at Bethlehem laid in a manger
    Christ our Redeemer asleep in the hay
    Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation
    A child with his mother
    That first Christmas Day
    Candlelight, angel light
    Firelight and star glow
    Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
    Gloria, Gloria in excelsis Deo!
    Angels are singing
    The Christ child is born
    Angels are singing
    The Christ child is born
    Songwriter: John Rutter
