This month's Ambleside Online Hymn is The Rock that is Higher than I. I had never heard this hymn before, but it is lovely & definitely worth memorizing! (Especially for those of us home educating Moms who get burned out sometimes.) I paced it a tiny bit slower than the recommended tempo, which I felt was more sing-able.
BTW, please comment this month on how these recordings are working for you! Would it be helpful to anyone if I added an alto line, or separate recording with the alto, so you can start working on parts in your family?
Credits: Thanks to Cyber Hymnal for use of their Midi file in this recording! Don't forget to print out their PDF hymn sheet for your family worship time.

You Tube links: This song was scarce on You Tube! There must be a lot of people who, like me, had never heard it before. :)
Copyright: I claim copyright for my voice in the recording. However, you're welcome to download & use it for your own personal use, education, or church! Please contact me if you would like to use it for commercial purposes, or on your own website (a link to the recording on my website is always allowed!). Thanks!
Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteDo you have a post that has links to all of your other recordings as well? That would be so helpful! Thank you!

I found you through the CM yahoo group.
That's a great idea! Maybe I'll have time to do that in the future. For now, just search for "Hymns" in the search box & you should be able to see all my posts with hymns in them. Thanks!
Deletethe pdf link goes to the midi file...
ReplyDeleteThanks! Fixed it.

ReplyDeleteThank your so much for sharing :) I almost substituted this months hymn for a more familiar hymn, bu now after reading the words and hearing it sung, I'm glad I didn't. I happen to sing alto. How difficult would it be to make a recording with the alto part? Again, I really appreciate your sharing of this resource :)
ReplyDeleteNot too difficult. Would it be more helpful to have just the alto part or both parts together, or both?

ReplyDeleteWhen I click on your link for your recording, it just goes to Google Docs and plays an advertisement. Any idea?
Thanks!

No idea! And I certainly didn't give them permission to do that. :( It must be in the fine print somewhere.
ReplyDeleteCan you try typing in the link? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bzn5JnBFIS3TY2MzTXBISkpwalE
DeleteSo sorry that's happening to you.
Jennifer, I get the same thing even when I copy and paste the link. When you do this yourself, do you get something other than this advertisemnt for Google?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your help! I really would love to use your recording!

I've never gotten an ad. I always get a little box with an option to "download now". My techie husband suggests trying a different browser (if you're on IE, try Firefox or Google Chrome). Or you could try a different computer. I hope you can get it working!
ReplyDeleteIt worked with a different browser! Tell your husband thank you! Your voice is lovely! Worth the work to finally hear you!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Thanks, Julie! Sorry it didn't work right away. :) Jen
