ROOTS: National Youth Choir (9-15 Years)

ROOTS is a musical journey through the folk traditions of Britain, Ireland and North America, tracing melodies and stories that have been passed down through generations. 

Drawing from the rich and diverse musical heritages of the lands, this programme explores the deep cultural connections expressed through the voices of the National Youth Choir's youngest singers. 

From the beauty of lullabies to the rhythms of dances, these pieces evoke the landscapes and traditions that have shaped history for centuries. Through both traditional melodies and contemporary responses to the traditions, ROOTS celebrates the enduring power of folk music to connect, uplift, and inspire across time and place.
