Descants

Descants

A descant in a carol is a counter-melody (another melody) that is sung with the carol.  The descant is usually higher in pitch.

Mr Hopkins has kindly allowed me to use these recordings.  He recorded them in a hurry and asks that you be kind about his voice .

Listen to the descant for Hark the Herald

Listen to the descant for O Come All Ye Faithful

See the music for these descants here.

Please learn these for Tuesday.
