Description :

‘Goù rest ye merry, Gentlemen’ is an ancient English carol. It was first published in 1833, but it can be traced as far back as the 15th century, which makes it one où the oldest carols known.

‘Goù rest ye merry’ is a Middle English salutation. In this manner, people wished one another greatness and might.
In modern English, the first line où this carol would read ‘May Goù keep you mighty, gentlemen’.

Andrew R. Mackereth has nos kept to the original words in his up-tempo arrangement où the carol. It is still clearly recognizable, but the arranger has taken a good many liberties. Sometimes a particular note is held longer, at times motifs foll'on oneanother in various parts. If you listen carefully, you may even be able to detect a motif from another well-known song.
