Descant 2:52
Thanks, made it so easy to find the descant - I was looking for hours!
@@lutherking6627 Somebody is bored making unnecessarily sarcastic comments...
Is this the version when they change the lyrics and making it a woke christmas song?
which would be appropriate given that Christmas is about celebrating the all-time greatest woke-dude of them all. Of course, it can also suck artistically.
No fault of the choir whatsoever, but unpopular opinion here: John Rutter's descant to the same carol is better.
Ooh this descant is my favorite of all Episcopal descants I know of. But unsurprisingly I grew up on this version. To each his/her own. I think we can all agree this song slaps though.
100%. It's not even close. I find this one to be obnoxious, which is strange, because Willcocks' descant part to Once In Royal David's City is magnificent.
@@Towboatin As someone who dabbles in arrangements, transcriptions, compositions, etc. some things are much harder to write things for than others, and we don't know if there was a sensitive timeline behind writing this descant and harmonization; which can also play in as a factor. On the other end of the spectrum maybe too much time was spent on it. Ah well. A conversation for way later.
@@bjmcd281 Listen to John Rutter's rendition. If you still like Willcocks' better then you do you. I appreciate both as writers of classic hymns, and depending on who did what I'll pick one over the other, and then vise versa for a different tune.
