Rise - Michael Kelly & Colette the Bard - (Master Hector of the Black Height cover)

Probably my favourite SCA kingdom anthem for a place I've never actually set foot in. 'Rise' is a favourite to sing at big events like Pennsic, particularly when there are lots of other singers around that know the chorus (especially Ealdormerians). This recording began as a solo project, but after I contacted Colette to ask for her advice with the harmonies, she not only recorded a number of harmonies herself, but very generously took over the mixing and balancing of the audio entirely! Doing so with this number of separate parts is a tremendous amount of work, and she did a fantastic job! Unfortunately, she wasn't able to get any video recorded for her parts, due to her current time constraints while she's mainly focused on recording her new album. --- Check out music live-streams on my Twitch TV channel:   / bard_mk   If you enjoy my music, please visit my Patreon page and consider becoming a patron of the arts!

[Chorus:] Rise, rise, rise! With the northern sun to warm us and the North Star as our guide, With the wind-song in my bow-string and a stout blade by my side, With our children as our future and our legends as our pride We shall stand; we shall conquer; we shall rise! The Inland Seas sustained the people, as did glade and glen; The crystal rivers slaked the thirst of those first here, and then Came a hunger for our destiny. The feast begins again When above our King the scarlet banners rise. Rise, rise, rise!... (Chorus) For many years we stood as vassals 'gainst the common foe; We did as we were bid and many lands our valour know, But today we stand in freedom. In proud freedom strike your blow When above your head the shining sword does rise. Rise, rise, rise!... (Chorus) There was a time that Southron folk our noble name did fear. The dismal days of silence passed; our destiny is here. Let us shake the hills in glory: for the Crown and Ealdormere! Form the shieldwall, draw the bow-string, we arise. Rise, rise, rise!... (Chorus) Hear now the word of northern folk, in hall and keep and field; We are the Northland's treasure, we the sword, the bow, the shield. We the life-blood, we the sinew, we the heart that shall not yield: For as long as one still stands the North shall rise! (Chorus x2)
