Carol Singing at Black Diamond Park 4 Dec 2022
We will have 1 carol singing session this year;

​
NB As in previous years we will be singing outdoors so please dress appropriately!
​
We will work from the following list of 23 songs. We will choose a selection of these for each session. These are a mix of traditional Carols, more modern Christmas songs and a few appropriate Hallelujahs and Glorias. They were mostly sung in unison, apart 3 songs (see below). This is the full list;
​

These four songs will be sung in 2 or 3 part harmony. I have put the sound files on Sound Cloud. Click the button here to hear them.

(This Sound Cloud file holds the parts for the Winter Solstice song 'Vigil' which we will sing at sessions on Thursday and Sunday sessions)

This button links to the Score (written music aka 'dots') for O Holy Night
​
NB For the traditional carols we will be singing the tune in unison, lower than is usual (as these are often sung at high soprano pitch) so harmonies you know may not work!
