Christmas Pieces to listen to

5/9/2017

0 Comments

 
As you know Colin is producing CDs for the different voices for the Christmas music and expects to have them at our next rehearsal (on the 16th) - which will be a boon!

In the meantime I've added links on the website to performances of nine of the pieces that I've found online. You can access them using this link.
The pieces are:
  • I Wish You Christmas
  • One Still and Silent Night
  • From a Distance (Christmas Version)
  • The Little Road to Bethlehem
  • Star of the East
  • Jingle Bells. Arr. Ray Charles
  • Still, Still, Still [in German]
  • Festival Sanctus
  • Christmas Lullaby
I've tested the links on my laptop and phone and all seems OK - but if anyone has any problems accessing them please let me know.
