Description: Together, Craig; Morgan; Robson bring a new dimension to the art of a-capella singing. They weave beguiling harmonies around material from the British tradition and beyond with "an effortless range and variety unheard in folk music for many years" (Folk London). Timeless songs of love and longing rub shoulders with compelling contemporary songs, and passionate, dramatic ballads take their place alongside a lilting Shetland melody or a stirring hymn from the Ozark mountains. The occasional solo song only adds to the variety of their overall performance. Here is a trio in which three distinctively different voices melt into one another to create a sound which is all their own. "True tradition bearers" (Living Tradition).
They will also be performimg an informal concert called Three Traditions
What happens when you bring together three performers with each with her own distinctive singing style and repertoire of material from her own part of the country? In the case of Craig Morgan Robson, the answer is a superb trio who have been described as “a harmony master-class”– but of course, few things are achieved without some hard work behind the scenes. In this new show, Moira Craig, Sarah Morgan and Carolyn Robson share some of the delights and challenges of combining three traditions, and demonstrate just how creative this rich mixture can be in a sparkling performance of solo and harmony songs from Scotland, Northumberland and Hampshire.
