DD Note:Christmas concerts were always beloved by our audience and they enjoyed singing along. But I also believed that our concerts should not be mere CAROL singing events in themselves and that every work in a paid-for concert should have some choral and artistic merit for the choir. This led to many carols being adapted to add choral complexity, so that our audience came to expect: challenging instructions in the programmes; less than turgid tempi; actions: or being taught totally new carols on the spot! We encouraged our audiences to take up those challenges and I believe it encouraged most of them to return!..…..
