  • THOMOND. FOOLOW, 15th December 2012 - Professor Ian Russell, from the University of Aberdeen and editor of The SHeffield Book of Carols, leads the sing at Carollers at Foolow village Hall, Derbyshire, one of over 100 "sings" , the ancient tradition of singing local carols, in packed pubs and villages across Sheffield and North Derbyshire. The Sheffield Carols predate the more familiar modern carols by more than a century. Some are joined by a brass band or piano and others are unaccompanied, often with alternative words and tunes. They were originally sung in churches, but were driven out from the 1830s and largely died out nationwide. The SHeffield Carols survived and are there are sings from Armistice Day to New Year's Day and each venue has it's own versions and traditions. In recent years local carols have been resurrected in Gloucestershire, Cornwall and Bradford-on-Avon in Wiltshire.
