The carols are very popular in South Yorkshire, and are still sung in and around the Stocksbridge, Penistone, Oughtibridge area. Members of the Bolsterstone Male Voice Choir, and Worrall MVC will be very familiar with them.
Please also visit the West Gallery Music Association web site, to quote from them they Study, revive and enjoy the Sacred Music of the Georgian Era.
For details the fabulous Festival of Village Carols visit villagecarols.org.uk you will find out all you need to know and many other items of interest.
The original midi music files were created using Finale 2000 but then converted mp3 files using Sibelius 5. The instrumentation is simulated using a variety of mixes and I cannot predict what they may sound like on your system.
I have recently created an audio CD containing 24 carols plus a couple of
songs which are frequently sung at carol concerts or pub singing sessions
Pratty Flowers, (known locally as The Holmfirth Anthem) and The
Prodigal Son.
While you are here, why not visit the web page of the
Slaithwaite Philharmonic Orchestra.
The Symphony Orchestra of the Colne Valley.
Happy Christmas, Cliff Hamer
