Hark! The Herald Angels Sing 3 Ver. (천사 찬송하기를 3ver.) - C.Wesley & R.H Prichard

Forgive me for saying hello to you after such as a long day. The children are 8 months old today.Why does it feel like I've raised them for eight years? I make excuses that I don't know how time flies because I live the same life, whether it's because of childcare or Coronavirus. 

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve! It's late, but let's all have a merry Christmas.

I have prepared 3 versions of "May the Angel Praise."

0:00 The faithful Ver.

1:00 Reharmonization

2:00 8-beat ballad 1

3:13 8-beat ballad 2

The faithful version of the hymn literally represents the four vocal parts of the hymn as a chord accompaniment. I've changed the reharmonization version to a modern song by organizing the bass notes. In traditional hymns, the bass changes a lot, so it's hard. We can change it to once every 2 beats. There's a slight change in harmony. If you change it so, I think it would be good to play with the praise team!

I played the 8-beat ballad version twice.

(Good!)

The second time, I put up an octave and played it.

(Awesome!)

Please keep an eye on Arpeggio. You don't have to play arpeggio in a single note. You can play it together like 1, 4, or 8 bars. Make sure you compare these three places that look similar. Arpeggio is the original chord, so what's wrong with expressing it together with a single sound?Haha. 

Doesn't it feel like jazz when you play it? And I put in a classic expression like 33 bars. There's a lot to talk about, but I can't help but feel it while practicing.

I think it's going to be a home stary Christmas this time, but... I wish it would snow. Just a simple wish. 

What should I write first?It's been a long time since we've been talking. And one last tip, I'd like to give you one more tip. Do you feel sad that the ballad version ends right away? So if you want to play the outro a little more, you can add three or four bars to the intro. Even when you say, "Put it on," open your imagination like this. Haha And we can end it with Fmaj

Well, I've given you a lot of great tips, so all you have to do is practice.

I wish you the best of heaven again today.~

Once again, Merry Christmas!
