Hymntune Playlist
  • So after a few months I've figured out that WHEN YOU WRITE IN ALL CAPS you refer to a hymn tune, i.e. FINLANDIA, or WHATEVER. (Notably, WHATEVER is a terrible name for a hymn tune. Don't know what the composer was thinking. Maybe he vacationed in WHATEVER when he wrote it.)

    QUAERITUR --- which is also a curious name for a hymntune --- is there a good resource online (not reliant on MIDI) where a lowly peon like myself may hear what these hymn tunes sound like? (Rather than YouTube or Spotify, that is.)

    Also, because it isn't worth a new thread: What's the name of the tune for Holy God, We Praise Thy Name?

    Youtube is very helpful for me. You don't always have complete reliability, but overall, it's quite helpful.
