The programme for the Christmas Cracker is attached below (also linked from the Practice Aids page).
Also see the Practice Aids page for SATB practice lines for the 2 Boosey & Hawkes carols (in the Koor section) and a video & score of the Bee Carol (in the YouTube section).
Practice lines for the Oxford carols are available on John Fletcher music (they are still in copyright so require a paid subscription.) I will add links to each of them shortly, but meanwhile you can search by their title on JFM if you want a head start!

Welcome to our new website! The site is built using the Making Music's own platform, which we hope in time will simplify the management of not just the website, but of the choir itself.
If there are any major issues with the site (e.g. pages not working properly or erroneous content) please contact Matt at webmaster@dartington-community-choir.co.uk - otherwise bear with us while we iron out minor wrinkles with the help of the Making Music team.
