Forge & Fledge is for nurturing new and experienced musicians / singers.
There are two branches – the first is a safe space to encourage singers to find their voice, led by Rosie Hodgson. The group explores all aspects of traditional song and builds confidence with technique and repertoire. The second branch provides artistic development for musicians between the ages of 18 & 30 led by tutor Rosie Butler-Hall, honing their musicianship and performance both in a group and solo setting. The project aims to forge new singers and musicians, providing them with encouragement and experience so that they can fledge into their most confident selves, while finding a space to share our musical heritage and folklore. |
