Further to my previous post; the “Round” was to encourage people to take part and be aware of the words. In some churches there was a man who sang the hymns a verse ahead of the congregation so that the people would know the words and music.
Then again, in my very young days we had to sing “Rounds” to establish if you could concentrate on what you had to do without being influenced by others near you. This allowed children to develop the ‘individualistic’ nature of the songs. Hence they, who could, would be able to join the choirs as in the Welsh Valleys, the American Barber Shop Quartet and some of the classical things from Handel etc.
Myself, I found it difficult to sing my part with others singing something different. Likewise, when playing my accordion in the orchestra I had to play third part which I managed to do only by reading my part of the music.
On the modern keyboards there are two or three voices in the right and the accompaniment. This would create a massive cacophony of noise total indistinguishable for any one listening if they were all playing something different.
To end this script;
I create a massive cacophony of noise totally indistinguishable for any one listening. That’s ME.
