| I agree that being easy to learn and sing is an important criterion; but part of what I'm complaining about in the random-notes style of hymn is precisely that the lack of conceptual coherence in the melody makes it difficult to remember from one verse to the next, and thus hard to learn. Though perhaps this is only something I notice given some musical training, and would be oblivious to if my approach to learning new tunes was more rote and less to do with understanding what the tune was trying to do. |
