Hark the Herald kicks off rehearsal tonight. At the concert the audience will be invited to sing with us when we start the performance with this song. The descant part is played by a trumpet.

Roll your rrrrrrrrs during O Holy Night - yes, all of them. Please do keep your mouths open wide for the word night especially.
We split into 1s and 2s for Carol of the Bells. The bell sound (dong) should be made mainly from the nose. On the second run through we stayed in tune because we all remembered to support the high notes.
See Amid The Winter Snow was next, giving the men time to shine, in that awesome chorus. Don’t forget the special ending. Let’s revisit that next week.
We were 1s, 2s and 3s for The Holly and Ivy. We lost part 2s at one point. They seem to be a little quiet, so we swapped about a bit …
We went Rocking Around The Christmas because Ed said it would already be ready great.
Next a former solo of mine, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. Finally settled in the key of G.
Then we were Dreaming Of A White Christmas is another one we can already sing well.
And a descant for O Come All Ye Faithful if anyones up for it? For the finale of course, fairytale Of New York.
Great work, choir! Keep it up and remember to read this blog. It’s full of top tips and no wrong dongs … xxx
