Dear All
Really good rehearsal with Penny last week with the whole choir making a great sound – well done everyone!
At this week’s rehearsal on 3rd Dec we will be looking at the carols for the Holly Lodge concert this Thursday (5/12) plus the pieces for our concert on 15th Dec. As well as concert music, please bring copies of carols all of which can be found on repertoire page and below. Most can also be found in the white 100 carols book as indicated.
We will be singing some of these carols at our concert as well (see below for draft programme showing which carols and verses)
