Chinese Visitors to the Folk Club



Traditional English folk song clubs really have their roots in the folk revival of the 1960s and are a particularly idiosyncratic part of English life. They enjoyed a brief popularity and then returned to their obscurity.


I invited my Chinese collegues from Nankai University to come along to the folk club that I help to run, and I was delighted when they sang! The club members thought that they were fantastic! (So did I!)

The club runs so well! Members there love music and are all good at singing.
How impressive your outstanding performance was!
