@ServusGrueziHallo LOL, isn't it silly. Most everything , good or bad, we learned from England. It is undeniable. Had I not read your post, I would have assumed. As a separate country (est. 1776), we also owe props to Sweet England for the practice of consanguineous marriages, slavery, a genetic predisposition to gum disease, and Evangelicals...the list goes on... But, if you want to be technical, most everything started in Ancient Sumar.

Here we go again. America is not the "birthplace of Sacred Harp". Sacred Harp, or shaped-note singing, as it came to be known in America, comes from England, Scotland, Ireland. It is old English/Scottisch/Irish/Celtic music - fuguing tunes, ballads and folk songs. The composers of this music came from the old country(England), as did the "shaped-note" tradition of singing.

From an American fan: This is great, but I don't know about 'outsing all others.' Maybe you haven't seen my 'Four Footstompin Shape note Tunes' yet (posted a couple of days ago). But after all, it's not a contest ;) and I'm sure we all wish that the oceans between us didn't prevent our all singing in one big hollow square!

From an Australian Fan:
Trust the Welsh to outsing all others! (as always) The mixing up of the first call parts in the fugue outshines anything I have seen from the homeplace American interpretations of this music. A real musical inspiration! And the enthusiasm! Bravo!

What a wonderful surprise to find this posting of Sacred Harp Singing so far from its birthplace! The same thrilling sound, the same enthusiastic approach to singing. I love it!
