I have some recordings of Sacred Harp singing but does anybody know where I can obtain a Video / DVD of sacred Harp singing in the UK?
      I watched Cold Mountain the other day and in particular Disc 2 which had performances of the music from the film. Loved it.

WE'll be singing Sacred Harp at Choppards Mission near Holmfirth on Saturday March 29th for those who are interested.

Details here, Frazz...

You'd be most welcome at any of these events; you can borrow a spare book, and you'd soon be singing along. The experience doesn't compare to a DVD or Mp3.

Sorry Frazz.. I admit that page doesn't link to any DVD distributors. But the contacts may be useful.

Sweet Is the Day: A Sacred Harp Family Portrait (59-min. documentary film)

A lot of short videos are on YouTube. Just type in "shape note."
