Still smiling after such a joyful workshop at the Usk Choral Festival. 💛

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and sang with us – and to the festival for making us feel so welcome.

We're especially proud of the members of WorldRoots Acappella, Gathering Voices' youth performance choir, who co-led the workshop alongside GV Director Hannah Klewin. Opportunities like these give our young singers invaluable experience as musicians, facilitators and leaders.

We're delighted to also share that we'll be bringing this workshop to !

If you're heading to WOMAD, come and sing with us on Friday 24 July, 10.00–11.00am in the new Launch Pod – a WOMAD Foundation initiative celebrating music, creativity and mentoring for young people.

Join Hannah and the WorldRoots team for an uplifting hour of songs from around the world, rich harmonies and joyful singing. Everyone is welcome, whatever your age or singing experience. We'd love to see you there! 🌍🎶

Look out for us in the WOMAD app under "Workshops" and add us to your festival schedule!
