      WERE angelic. This was 4 years ago and most of these boys have hit puberty. Honestly so bittersweet to see your boy with the literal voice of an angel one year and the next they're still just as loud but leaning more towards the demonic 🥲 at least these boys' parents have beautiful videos to remember the prepubescent angel days by now! VHS home videos were worse than nothing 😂

      Shchedryk was arranged by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych at the beginning of the 20th century. The song is based on the traditional Ukrainian folk chant welcoming the New Year (shchedrivka). In 1921, the Ukrainian National Chorus sang the song in the United States to a sold-out audience at Carnegie Hall. Later, Peter J. Wilhousky rearranged the melody for the orchestra and wrote the new lyrics in English thus creating Carol of the Bells. The original Shchedryk by Leontovych was intended to be sung a cappella by a mixed four-voice choir.

    Carol of the Bells was written in 1916 by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovich and titled “Shchedryk,” the song tells the tale of a swallow flying into a household to proclaim the plentiful year that the family will have. The song’s title is derived from the Ukrainian word “shchedryj,” which means “bountiful.”

      @@jesusmind1611 math is global too, like this melody. Still the whole world praises great mathematicians, who've made math possible as language. Such names as Pythagoras, Newton, Einstein are worldly renowned. The world has to know it's heroes. The same goes with music. The art of Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky is universal - still we know their names as creators of this universal art and we know their roots. This is the respect to the music itself. The same with Carol of the Bells. It has become universal and because of that we have to pay tribute to the authors: Ukrainian traditional culture and Mykola Leontovych.

    My God, I just cannot pass a day without hearing this Christmas Carol, since I found it last year (2023), it's been my daily quote of energy to start the day, get good energy and go on!...
    Oh! I wish Christmas could be extended for a month! But, well...
    My congratulations to these Angels, I mean, boys.

      Shchedryk was arranged by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych at the beginning of the 20th century. The song is based on the traditional Ukrainian folk chant welcoming the New Year (shchedrivka). In 1921, the Ukrainian National Chorus sang the song in the United States to a sold-out audience at Carnegie Hall. Later, Peter J. Wilhousky rearranged the melody for the orchestra and wrote the new lyrics in English thus creating Carol of the Bells. The original Shchedryk by Leontovych was intended to be sung a cappella by a mixed four-voice choir.
