2025-11-09 All dayRE: Ralph Vaughn Williams interpretation:
- Harmonization of the Tune: "All People That on Earth Do Dwell" is set to the tune "Old Hundredth," which is one of the most well-known hymn tunes and dates back to the 16th century. Vaughan Williams created a notable harmonization of this tune for the 1953 coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. His arrangement brought a fresh and majestic quality to the already beloved hymn, making it suitable for grand ceremonial occasions.
- Orchestration for the Coronation Service: Vaughan Williams not only harmonized the hymn but also orchestrated it for a full choir and orchestra for the coronation service. This orchestration enhanced the hymn's grandeur and was used during the recessional at the end of the service, leaving a lasting impression on the attendees and listeners.
- Influence on Hymnody: Vaughan Williams' work on "All People That on Earth Do Dwell" is part of his broader impact on hymnody. Through his contributions, including this specific harmonization and orchestration, he helped to elevate and modernize hymn singing within the Anglican tradition and beyond.
