Thanks for joining our YouTube Sessions!

Below is the resources you will need for Session 1 – October 28th (6.30pm – 8pm). This month we are going to be rehearsing “Sit Down” by James.

We have split the song into four parts.

You can listen to each part as a vocal part on it’s own, or with the piano / guitar behind it.   At the very bottom of the sound files is an instrumental, so you can have a shot at the track on your own.

In the next few days we will be adding sheet music for each section.

All you have to do now is practise, practise, practise –  because on the 28th October, we will take you through a virtual choir rehearsal where you will sing along with us (virtually) as if you were at a real choir rehearsal.  You will need to apply lots of make believe fairy dust to the evening and make sure you have your headphones!

For new people, we suggest having a listen to all parts to see what feels right.
