GUEST,Emmie Yan Tan Tetherer- at Cecil Sharp House EFDSS (18) Yan Tan Tetherer 26 Mar 14


I just wanted to tell everyone about this exciting new project: Yan Tan Tethera at Cecil Sharpe House EFDSS

http://www.textilefolksong.co.uk/

A project exploring and celebrating the connections between the making of textiles and song.
Curated by David Littler in partnership with the English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS).
The project features:
An exhibition of new work by artists Freddie Robins, Shane Waltener, Prick Your Finger, Stewart Easton and the McGrath Makers Group who will be delving deep into the EFDSS's archive;
A series of textile inspired making and singing events and graffiti stitch chairs for you to embroider your favourite textile song.
The project culminates in a live performance from sonic arts collective sampler-cultureclash as they unite Gaelic song with spinners, weavers and knitters, and traditional and electronic musicians in an exploration of things that spin.
May to Sept 2014 at Cecil Sharp House. London.

If you look under songs on the website people are invited to send in any recordings they have of textile based songs.
