About the channel
This channel provides a library of historic traditional Christian hymns mostly 19th and early 20th century, for people, who as I do, prefer these old hymns to the modern ones. Synchronised on-screen lyrics are provided so for sing along use. The hymn music used is entirely my own orchestral arrangement and recordings of the original public domain hymn tunes using midi control of instrument samples. The lyrics and tunes are out of copyright public domain, my music recordings are copyright© Rod Smith, but permission is granted for non-commercial, worship purposes. This channel also contains a small number of videos relating to my home town in East Sussex and related to my interest in bluegrass and folk music. I am a retired electronics engineer, ex banjo & fiddle player but stopped by arthritis and also former owner of traditionalmusic.co.uk I hope you enjoy my channel, suggestions as to how it could be improved are welcome.

How to submit music to Rod Smith
- Match before you send. Watch what the channel posted most recently and check your track fits that format and sound, currently folk. A channel will not run a track that sits outside what its audience subscribed for.
- Lead with the music. A private link that plays on the first click beats an attachment or a long introduction.
- Keep it to three lines. Who you are, what the track is, why it fits this channel specifically.
- Check the channel is still active. Figures on this page come from our last refresh in October 2025, so confirm the upload schedule before you spend a pitch on it.
