Soy uruguayo, sudamericano. No domino el idioma inglés. Soy cristiano católico. Y debo decirles que en ninguna liturgia católica he visto ni oído una asamblea que cantara como en esta Misa en la Abadía de Westminster. Es maravilloso cómo el coro de los niños completa el canto de la feligresía con una melodía armónica con la melodía principal. Es bellísimo todo, y con un video muy artístico. Fraternales saludos desde Uruguay.

BTW my favorite female organist was named Fran. (Fran McDaniel 10/13/42 to 11/28/94.) I miss her so much.

I listened to the live feed from Cambridge this morning in New York. They used this arrangement and this decant for the third verse today -- I think it is my favorite. It just struck me for the first time -- and after years of being a child chorister myself, long ago -- those sixteen little boys are holding that descant alone against the choir men, the whole congregation, and that vast organ roaring in the vaulted acoustic space. It sounds like one model of courage itself.

Sublime. Everyone says "I'll try anything once". If you liked this, go to a church this Christmas - try it - just the once.

I *tried* flying *once.* (Years ago with my family on vacation.) My poor ears pipped and popped. That's why I am not able to ever go to England (no matter how much I love it.) What a shame because it would be my "pipe dream" (I am an enthusiastic amateur organist) come true to see the King's College Choir. 👍👏They're the best choir in the world!👍👏

My favorite things about anglican church music: the descant and interesting last verse reharmonizations. A good organist can really have fun with the latter.

As an American, many of our choirmasters try for a british sound and I agree it is incomparable. However, whether British or broad, the music sustains itself on its own terms. The choir and that magnificent organ, which I heard being tuned many years ago, cannot be equaled.

Interestingly this chant isn't British at all! It's Portuguese and the composer is King John IV of Portugal, a highly renowned composer in his days! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR ;-)

Correct! In Germany this "anthem/hymn" gets a "germanic touch", in Russia a "russian one" and maybe in China it's performed with a certain "chineseness"! So...? It's still Portuguese, regardless of any "nesses" of and in each country/culture performing it! Happy Christmas

Jon Goldney Not at all! Whether exclamation marks "are necessary" or not is a personal matter only! Now look who's making remarks about how one writes? Feeling tackled? B.t.w.: the sound isn't British at all! It's mere choral arrangement technique - a very good one, one must add! What's wrong is when the song is chracterised as "traditional" (i.e. no one knows wherefrom), which is WRONG!

You aren't kidding. Our new hymnal, for some reason, eliminated this verse and ends on the descant verse. The unison verse with "the chord" always gives me chills and brings a tear or two to my eye. I play this on the piano almost every day during advent, and I promise I have the harmonies of the 4th verse completely ingrained. Including "the chord."

The 'Word of the Father'-chord at 3:37 is amazing.... Can't use it in coral singing; can only prepared and solved with the organ; and it can't be used, or everyone would instantly say: 'He, isn't that Willcocks?', if the Gloria descant not already gave it away.

O Come All Ye Faithful Joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem. Come and behold Him, Born the King of Angels; O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord. O Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation, Sing all that hear in heaven God's holy word. Give to our Father glory in the Highest; O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
