Bury Singing Day Pack

These folk songs were arranged by Caroline Price. The material was put together for a community singing day that Caroline ran at The Met, Bury in 2014. Over 50 singers came together to learn material that originated from the North West, led by Caroline and the Stream of Sound youth chorus from Stourbridge.

This pack provides information on each of the songs, including examples of the original manuscripts that the material was taken from. You can download Caroline's scores for each song, and the background pack from the PDF tab at the top of this panel.

Scores of the other songs Caroline arranged are also available:
