Thread Name: HYMNS and Folk Tunes?
Subject: RE: HYMNS and Folk Tunes?
I heard a startling hymn this summer on Sunday morning of the Keith TMSA festival. It used the tune of The Barnyards of Delgaty, (and a slight variation thereof for the chorus), and I swear, it sounded entirely appropriate. Unfortunately, I didn't capture the hymn on tape and even managed to lose my church program, so if anyone else has ever heard it (and knows anything about the "wedding" of tune and hymn), I'd love to be enlightened.
