We’ve begun work on our Christmas repertoire. We’ve had many requests for new music and for some challenges, so Nigel, our conductor and myself (Stephanie, your accompanist) have obliged with no less than eight new Christmas songs. They range from familiar tunes not often heard to some unique and beautiful ones. Did you know there are three tunes to O Little Town of Bethlehem? How about an Elvis tune? Maybe a bit of Gordon Lightfoot? Are you intrigued? Would you like to sing with us? Check out our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page to learn more and visit our Contact us page to sign up.
