Midsummer Revels: A Celebration of English Folk Music at Somerset Rural Life Museum
Step into a world of sunshine, song, and spirited tradition with Midsummer Revels. Blending English folksongs with original compositions and lively, toe-tapping dance tunes, this uplifting performance captures the essence of long summer days, blue skies, and rolling green fields.
From tales of land and sea to stories of town and country, the music is brought vividly to life through a rich array of instruments, including English border bagpipes, mandocello, and shawm. All of it is delivered with GreenMatthews' signature wit and warmth.
Following the success of their acclaimed Midwinter Revels, this latest production offers a joyful seasonal counterpart, perfect for anyone looking to soak up the sounds and spirit of summer.
