Please remove the intro... It's a good piece of music on its own, but when used like that It's just so annoying.

Yes, and I am American of English (50%) and German (50%) ethnicity...very proud of both heritages. When I hear British friends complain about Germans, I remind them of the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who created England and whose language, in modern form, we speak today.

@FranzMatthias Hayden, yes, I stand corrected. (I had Handel playing on my ipod at the time, I think) And actually, I should have said that the *words* used in this setting were written in 1796, but I don't know when they were brought together with the music.
-
I did not know about that. But I am very sure that Haydn is the composer of this tune rather than Handel. And he made it for the Austrian Emperors. Any church use must be of younger date.

@FranzMatthias This tune, composed by Handel has at least one Hymn setting to text of Psalm 148. I know this because I led it this morning as Cantor at a Catholic Church in Ontario, Canada. The text of the first two verses of "Praise the Lord, ye heavens adore him" was set in 1796, and the third in the mid 1800s by another author. So as much as it may be mixing categories, this tune does appear in at least one hymnal.

More 8' + 4"' to hold down that high mixture
-
You all know that the tune was written by the great composer, "Papa" Haydn, yes?
-
@midnightatutopia english is the most latinized of the germanic languages
-
The hymn is to be found in the Episcopal Hymnal in the US. The tune is not currently played much in Austria!

Are you sure that the German national anthem fits to a church? You are producing wonderful videos with good organists, but you are mixing categories here. Sorry, but it's true.

@FranzMatthias Good comment! We record National Anthems because they are technically "hymns" and most churches do play them at times. In the case of the German anthem the tune is called Austria and it's had Christian words set to it...usually titled "Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken".
