At Christmas, we always do one carol to supplement our Christmas songs – it’s a tradition! It’s a little like ‘Now That’s What I Call Christmas’ meets ‘Glee!’
When it comes to accompaniment, sometimes we use a backing track and sometimes a piano. There are also some numbers for which we use just our voices – ‘acapella’
The songs we tackle start simply to ensure they’re done well and we make a good sound. No-one wants to hear an over-complicated arrangement that ends up sounding mediocre and messy. For some songs we also have some simple movements (swaying etc) that really add something to the performance – lots of fun!
