Just wondering if any mums are looking for a lovely informal place for their children to play in a music ensemble? If so then please read on. Bath Folk Festival runs two youth folk bands. We meet once a month on a Saturday morning. The senior band is for players of approx grade 4-8 standard and the training band is for beginners and intermediates. A good ear for music really helps as we often learn tunes by ear. It is great fun and you get to play at music festivals and events throughout the year, if you want to, and when time allows. Lovely group of parents too. Video shows senior band performing at Southdown Folk Music Festival on Saturday. Please email [email protected] for more details. Free taster sessions. Thanks for reading this. Please spread the word. Lots of our musicians have gone to uni or moved up from the training band into the senir band so we now have spaces for new musicians.
