There is a very satisfying unity between the different streams of traditional performance activity; music linking songs and dance, exchange of songs and customs across the British Isles, and way beyond to Europe and beyond. The same story can be collected in Birmingham and Baghdad. It's a mystery but a great unifier. The Trad Arts Team continues to present and support a range of traditional performance. Come along and join us. We look forward to seeing you.
