‘God rest ye merry, Gentlemen’ is an ancient English carol. It was first published in 1833, but it can be traced as far back as the 15th century, which makes it one of the oldest carols known.

‘God rest ye merry’ is a Middle English salutation. In this manner, people wished one another greatness and might.
In modern English, the first line of this carol would read ‘May God keep you mighty, gentlemen’.

Andrew R. Mackereth has not kept to the original words in his up-tempo arrangement of the carol. It is still clearly recognizable, but the arranger has taken a good many liberties. Sometimes a particular note is held longer, at times motifs follow oneanother in various parts. If you listen carefully, you may even be able to detect a motif from another well-known song.

‘God rest ye merry Gentleman’ is een oude Engelse carol. De eerste officiële publicatie was in 1833, maar de sporen leiden tot ergens in de 15e eeuw. God rest ye merry Gentleman is daarmee één van de oudste carols.

‘God restye merry’ is een oude groet. Men wenste elkaar kracht toe.
Wanneer we de titel naar ‘onze’ tijd zouden vertalen, dan luidt die ‘May God keep you gentleman strong’.

Andrew R. Mackereth heeft zich in dit ‘up-tempo’arrangement niet aan de tekst gehouden. Het lied komt wel zeer duidelijk naar voren maar de arrangeur heeft zich de nodige vrijheid gegund. De ene keer wordt een noot langer aangehouden, een andere keer zijn het motieven die elkaarin diverse stemmen opvolgen. Als u goed luistert kunt u zelfs een motiefje uit een ander zeer bekend lied herkennen.

This creative grade 2 interpretation of the great Christmas favorite God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen will be the highlight of your next holiday concert. Scored in E minor, a traditional version of the melody played by upper strings is supported throughout by a trendy groove in the cello/bass parts. As explained in the score notes, the title of this setting refers to the fact that the carol on which it is based hails historically from the Cornwall region of England. Three copies of the 3rd Violin/Viola T.C. part are included in each set. Duration 1:50. Available in SmartMusic.
