..OK, it’s not actually here yet, but like Tesco’s home and garden aisle, choir leaders have to think ahead at this time of year and get prepared.   With that in mind, we have launched our Christmas Arrangements page today.  It’s not as fully stocked as we would have liked ideally – the process for getting the clearance for rights-owned songs has let us down again – but we hope to improve that situation quickly over the next few weeks.

For now, we have a good selection of public domain arrangements, including an original secular carol from hurdy gurdy maestro Nigel Eaton and a traditional New Zealand carol from our new arranger, Wendy Sergeant.  This is Wendy’s first piece on the site, but we will be adding many more soon which we are very excited about indeed!

Coming soon will be some of those popular classics mentioned above, as well as a selection of other high quality and sometimes unusual selections to give you something a little bit different to try out for this year’s concerts.

The page is available in the link about and also has pride of place on our new home page.  We hope you enjoy trying some of these out and as always, please let us know what you think.
