St Mary’s runs a Christmas Choir. We rehearse during November and December on Wednesday evenings and sing at the Nine Lessons and Carols service the Sunday before Christmas. Recently we have tended to sing four choir items as well leading the congregational carols. The ability to read music is not absolutely necessary as we usually manage to have a practice CD to sing along with at home. Enthusiasm and the willingness to have a go are the prerequisites for joining.
