Advent Calendar of Carols: Irvine & Dreghorn Youth Band – Jingle Bells

The youth band has managed to stay connected during the pandemic with weekly Zoom rehearsals that combine the beginners and more experienced members of the organisation. The highlight so far for the band has been taking part in this year’s Virtual Youth Festival.

It was great to see other youth bands having a go at online performances and it has given the players a great deal of pleasure to be able to produce something worthwhile during this crazy year!

The band is now rehearsing for their performance in the Irvine & Dreghorn senior band Christmas concert. Jingle Bells is one of the pieces the youth band will play in the concert and they thought it would be good to let you all hear it and hopefully spread some Christmas cheer – click on https://youtu.be/yrCvj0k2ycg
