Roots Alive

Roots Alive play traditional and folk music from both Britain and around the world, on a range of instruments – mainly strings (e.g. violins, guitars and mandolins) and woodwind (especially flutes and whistles), but also including hand percussion and accordions. We also regularly travel – in Summer 2018 we went an exchange to Chemnitz, Germany, to partner with a local music school there. They then came to visit us in March 2019.

Most members are fluent on their instruments and have a willingness / ability to play by ear or memory. We don’t hold auditions, but do encourage prospective members to join us for a trial rehearsal.

Director: Ruth Wild 

We will finish for the summer holidays on 12th July but will be back on Friday 6th September 2019!

Open Rehearsals for the Autumn Term will be held on Friday 6th and 13th September 2019, we would love to see you there!
