The Bristol-based composer, conductor and organist Arthur Warrell[1] is responsible for the popularity of the carol. Warrell arranged the tune for his own University of Bristol Madrigal Singers, and performed it with them in concert on December 6, 1935.[2] That same year, his elaborate four-part arrangement was published by Oxford University Press, under the title "A Merry Christmas: West Country traditional song".[3]
Warrell's arrangement is notable for using "I" instead of "we" in the words; the first line is "I wish you a Merry Christmas". It was subsequently republished in the collection Carols for Choirs (1961), and remains widely performed.[4]
The earlier history of the carol is unclear. It is absent from the collections of West-countrymen Davies Gilbert (1822 and 1823)[5] and William Sandys (1833),[6] as well as from the great anthologies of Sylvester (1861)[7] and Husk (1864).[8] It is also missing from The Oxford Book of Carols (1928). In the comprehensive New Oxford Book of Carols (1992), editors Hugh Keyte and Andrew Parrott describe it as "English traditional" and "[t]he remnant of an envoie much used by wassailers and other luck visitors"; no source or date is given... learn more at en.wikipedia.o...

I’m useing toy smith harmonica
did it work for you? What other kinds of songs would you like to learn?
I have 7 holes harmonica I cannot play 8,9,10 plz make 7 holes harmonica video
Hi, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that kind of harmonica! In fact I had a look for one on Amazon and couldn't find one there either! Do you have a tuner or a piano handy? You could sit down and figure out what notes each hole makes and come up with your own tabs?
I always have this problem of not blowing into the same note every time.What should I do?
Can you be more specific?
@@KerinGedge Eg.Like I blew into the 4th note,then 12th note,then back to the 4th note.The first and third time sounds different.I suspect I blew into the notes beside it.
What brand of harmonica do you use? I use swan harmonica.
My chromatic harmonica is a swan and i really love it! My diatonic one though is a Hohner Marine Band
Kerin Gedge do you know me right?
