A Socially Distanced Christmas
For all bands, Christmas is one of the busiest times of the year for Unite the Union Band, whether we are out carolling in small groups (inside and out!), or performing full band concerts. Unfortunately Christmas 2020 will not see the band out and about performing as we would like to, however, that hasn't stopped us trying to bring a bit of festive cheer albeit in a virtual and socially distanced manner.
Thank you again to our fantastic MD John Davis who put all of these videos together!
First up, we have a short carol for you: Away in a Manger

Our second offering features our good friends from the Bel Canto Choir. For a number of years, the band has been invited to join Bel Canto at their Christmas concert at St Margaret's Church in Swinton. As the concert was unable to take place this year, we though t it only appropritate to join forces for a joint virtual Christmas project.
Please enjoy our second video: O Come, All Ye Faithful

Our third video is a little bit different, and a little bit special, but perfect for Christmas Eve. Featuring members of the band, their children and a special appearance by Karen Reay from Unite the Union NEYH, we hope you enjoy our reading of:
T'was the Night Before Christmas
