Hi everyone
I’ll be leading a group of singers in a choir song as part of the Dunkerton Carol Service in the church on Sunday 17 December 5pm.
Everyone is welcome to sing – all ages.
We’ll be doing Beautiful Star of Bethlehem… it’s a traditional American Christmas song, rocking chair tempo, very enjoyable to sing, with lovely harmony parts. We did it quite a few years ago and it worked really well.
Here’s a recording of me singing the first verse and chorus with all the parts. You can also listen to each part on its own with the others in the background.

and here for a score – not that easy to read and I have made a few amendments – probably easier to learn it by ear from the recordings.
Rehearsals will be:
- Sunday 3 December – provisionally 2pm in the church
- Saturday 9 December – provisionally 2pm in the church
- Sunday 17 December 3:45pm in the church.
I’ve made a WhatsApp group so we’re all in touch to confirm rehearsals. Please WhatsApp me on 07894 205255 if you’re not yet on it.
Look forward to singing with you
Jane
