Last year my Nephews Jake & Oliver recorded a new vocal and we captured them in a video. This year I have spent several months creating a new video with some stunning winter scenes for your pleasure. I Hope you enjoy this Song once again this year. * Copyright Darren & Wayne Bartlett - DMBMUSIC * * Flying over the clouds footage used by kind permission of Cloud9* * All additional Footage courtesy of pexels.com & pixabay.com* www.darrenbartlett.co.uk Copyright DMB MUSIC 2000-2020 www.dmbmusic.co.uk  less

"A Song of Peace" written by Jonathan Adams, published by Pavane Publishing, P1337 and beautifully sung by Matthew Curtis, Choral Tracks LLC.

Usually it is the church Song which is incorporated into the folk culture. In the Sotho language: "I also like to see the angels on Mount Zion, with all the blessed people." This is from The OK Chorale's second public concert in March 2013 at St. Mary's Church, Woodbridge, Suffolk, UK.

The oratorio was first performed in Manchester Cathedral in 1994. This psalm forms the climax of the whole cantata and provides an expression of optimism after the tragedies of the previous sections. In this “extracted” version, the tragic surroundings of the history remain in the background and the purebubbling joy of the psalm itself shines forth. Enjoy the complex rhythms and let your hair down! This performance by Daniel Shaw's Composer's Choir (based in Connecticut) is a brilliant rendition of the piece and will, I Hope, encourage other church choirs and concert choirs to consider including it in their repertoire.  less

Recorded live on Thursday, July 3, 2014, at Christ Lutheran Church in Oakland Park, Florida. Performed by the Concert Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson. Rosemary, Rosemary, There's a Pig in your garden, With silk bristles frizzy And tushes of snow! But Rosemary was cautious, She said, "Beg your pardon! I'm really too busy To look down below." Rosemary, Rosemary, There's a Bird in your kitchen! His voice is gold water, He says, "Pretty Poll!" But Rosemary heard nothing, Putting stitch after stitch in The dress of a daughter, Her thirty-sixth doll. Rosemary, Rosemary, A silver-ringed Rabbit! He bridles and gentles And wants you astride! "I prefer," said Rosemary, "To ride a Good Habit." She went buying black lentils- She did till she died.  less
