Omg i wish I could play the organ. Im still trying to urge our church organist to do so but she won't let lol. I can only play on one manual but i can't play on two lol, its kinda difficult for me lol.
BTW «allenorgan27» VOICING is what an organ bulider does to make pipes into a cohesive and pleasing ensemble. I think you mean REGISTRATION. And, why not use REEDS in v.2 «His kingdom cannot fail...» err. I might very well!
Excellent playing but... PLEASE get rid of that lacklustre harmonisation of DARWALL's 148th! The cadence in bars 9-10 SHOULD go: F - E - Am. Most GOOD hymnals use this version.
i think the voiceing should be a little different. i would definatly NOT use the reeds on the 2nd verse. i am a 14 year old organist and play @ church regularly...how old is this kid? O and btw good job other than the voicing
If this is a pipe organ, it sounds nice. However I wouldn't use a reed chorus in the second verse. And in the first verse, have a lot of 8' stops out and a few 4' and 1 or 2 two foot stops. Most of all, like with my super fast trumpet voluntary,.......PLAY SLOWER!!!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Yesterday (Nov. 22), we sang this as the opening hymn, since it was Christ the King Sunday. However, it was to the tune, LAUS REGIS, composed by William E. Fischer. It is #430 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship and the title is now Rejoice, for Christ Is King!
This is another one where we sing different words in England, Ye Holy angels bright with Darwall's 148th, and Gopsal (melody by Handel) for Rejoice the Lord is King
That is how most churches that I know of do it (Ye Holy Angels Bright). I was playing out of the Baptist hymnal, so I titled it as what was in the hymnal.
Another great job! The e-mail from YouTube yesterday that you had posted a couple new videos this week made my day.Hymns played well on pipe organs still life my spirits while other types of music not so much....Do you get to play in church services and/or organ concerts? I would hate to know that your talent is just on YouTube. You deserve a live audience. LOL (repost to correct typo)
You da bomb! I want to fly you and your family out to California so you can play the Crystal Cathedral organ. (You all have to sit on my back while I flap my arms)
We just used this one today. I love it! Our organist used a very interesting harmonization for the last verse. It was one of the best I have ever heard.
hmmm..thats weird we do it at our church fairly often. My mom is the Music Director and I'm the organist on occasion, but Very nicely done! I enjoy listening to your videos. Do you use the red Organist's Manual book?
...I've noticed that;p In many Baptist churches taste has long gone out the window. I watched one replace vintage 1886 stained glass....with glass blocks..O.o
In one, they wanted to put in a dropped ceiling with recessed flourescent lights.....in a period Victorian church O.o........then you have the audio booth ministry.....
Most of the older hymnals used by Baptists were a combo of Anglican hymns + solid hymns by such as Fannie Crosby.
Good job. Sad about not singing "good" hymns in the Baptist Church. Your talents, both religious and musical, might be put to good use at the Tridentine Latin Mass of the Catholic Church. In the rite of Mass, you will find an immense amount of "good" music. God Bless!
Being a church organist who has played at a variety of churches over the years I find that the best and most glorious music programs are to be found in Episcopal/Anglican churches. Presbyterians have a good musical tradition, and so do Lutherans. Yes, the RCC has a proud musical heritage as well. My favorite is Episcopalean. I admit some bias since I am one, and I also am employed as an organist by an Episcopal Church. LOL BTW, this hymn was played magnificently. Well done, octavebasse8!

That is a very nice rendition of a great hymn of the Church. Darwa
lls 148th can be sung to several and various hymn texts .And you do it fine !

While the lyrics to "Rejoice the Lord is King" are lovely.....
I prefer the original (Ye Holy Angels Bright).....which must always be sung with a snooty British accent:)

Why with the snooty British accent?
How about you record a video of you doing that, then post it.
octavebasse8 2 years ago
LOL....I'm joking, of course:p
But to me it is one of the ultimate "English Cathedral" style hymns that makes me think of a boychoir singing with an Oxford accent:)
19lfm12 2 years ago
Oh, but I think you do need to record a video of you singing it. It would give us all something to laugh about. haha

@19lfm12 It's the distasteful drive towards contemporary worship in Baptist churches that has caused the sad, sad, changes such as these.
