November 2009

This fall we began our fifth season of the Almonte Traditional Song Circle held Oct - May on the third Sunday of the month from 2-4 p.m. in the Barley Mow pub in Almonte.

The primary focus is on traditional songs with choruses such as sea shanties and old gospel tunes. Participation is the important thing and, for those who may not feel comfortable singing on their own or leading, most of the songs have a familiar or easy-to-learn chorus that makes it easy for people of all voices and levels to sing along.

The session is an opportunity for people to sing in an informal and relaxed atmosphere and to counteract the tendency to experience music as a passively consumed product of the music industry. As the great American folk singer and storyteller, Utah Phillips once said, "These days, a revolutionary song is anything you sing yourself."
