01 Jan 12 - 11:52 AM (#3282978) Subject: RYBURN Song Workshop with Sara Grey From: johnadams 11th February 2012 Web page Tracing The Migration Of Songs Between Scotland & Ireland And North America Tutor: Sara Grey Scots and Ulster Scots have emigrated in such numbers that no other European Nation has ever lost such a high proportion of it's people. In the early days these were men and women who left behind them a homeland rich in the oral tradition of song and ballad singing; an inheritance which they carried with them wherever they went. Their legacy is apparent to this day. Sara will trace the migration of songs from Northern Ireland and Scotland to North America by singing a song, or part of it, from its Celtic source and then singing the American or Canadian version showing the changes and the similarities. The workshop is interactive and informal and the participants are encouraged to sing on choruses and refrains, and ask any relevant questions. At 103, Oldham Rd, Ripponden, HX6 4EB £25 (£18 concession) To reserve a place contact : Chris Coe on 01422 822413 |

She was in this area in Arkansas, USA this fall and did several workshops at local colleges and has been asked to return. This is a great opportunity for anyone who is interested in traditional music and cultural patterns and particularly for anyone who performs traditional music in public. |
