Cecil Sharp Project
A joint commission between Shrewsbury Folk Festival and EFDSS
Child's Song / Barbara Allen
Sharp was struck by the cross-generational interest in singing in the Appalachians. His diaries frequently mention songs given to him by children and teenagers and their desire to perform for him and Maud on their visits.
Barbara Allen was one such, this version collected from Ellie Johnson of Hot Springs, North Carolina.
Caroline Herring, Steve Knightley, Andy Cutting, Kathryn Roberts,
Jackie Oates, Jim Moray, Leonard Podolak, Patsy Reid
On March 18th 2011, the eight artists gathered together in Shropshire for a 7 day residential, with an artistic brief to create new works that have a 'resonance and relevance' to Cecil Sharp, and in particular his Appalachian travels and song collecting between 1915-1918.
The residential was immediately followed by 3 concerts (one in Shrewsbury, and two in London), these performances were professionally recorded, and will be mixed and produced for a CD release in the summer, a DVD is also being edited for release

These films from 1912, shot on a Kinora machine, are the earliest known examples of English folk dance on film. They feature sisters Maud and Helen Karpeles, co-founders of the English Folk Dance and Song Society, along with Cecil Sharp, another co-founder of the Society and Godfather of the English Folk Dance Revival, and George Butterworth, who but for the First World War, when he died during the Battle of the Somme, would have been Sharp's successor rather than Helen's husband Douglas Kennedy. The films are currently being exhibited as part of the Canning Town Folk exhibition: see www.canningtownfolk.co.uk © English Folk Dance and Song Society

Cecil James Sharp (22 November 1859 – 23 June 1924) was the founding father of the folklore revival in England in the early 20th century, and many of England's traditional dances and music owe their continuing existence to his work in recording and publishing them.
Sharp was born in Camberwell, London, the eldest son of James Sharp (a slate merchant who was interested in archaeology, architecture, old furniture and music) and his wife, Jane née Bloyd, was also a music lover. Sharp was educated at Uppingham, but left at 15 and was privately coached for the University of Cambridge, where he rowed in the Clare College boat and graduated B.A. in 1882.

Neil Halstead (born 7 October 1970 in Reading, Berkshire, England) is a British guitarist and singer, described as "one of Britain's most respected songwriters" by Allmusic. He was a founding member of Slowdive, a band often associated with the shoegazer musical genre. Following the disbanding of Slowdive, Halstead along with some other members of Slowdive (including longtime friend and musical collaborator Rachel Goswell) formed Mojave 3. Mojave 3 are stylistically distinct from Slowdive and may be regarded as British country/folk. Halstead is the principal singer and songwriter in Mojave 3 and also plays guitar.
In 2002, 4AD (a British independent record label) released his debut solo album, Sleeping on Roads. Following his departure from 4AD, a second solo album, Oh! Mighty Engine was released by Jack Johnson's Brushfire Records on July 29, 2008. The album was partly recorded in Johnson's solar powered studio in Los Angeles before being completed at a Second World War airfield in Britain. The Guardian has compared Oh! Mighty Engine to the work of Nick Drake and Bert Jansch. Halstead has said of his solo work that it's "really good doing something on my own", having been in Slowdive then Mojave 3 since he was 17 years old.

Jackie Oates, Jim Moray, Leonard Podolak, Patsy Reid
On March 18th 2011, the eight artists gathered together in Shropshire for a 7 day residential, with an artistic brief to create new works that have a 'resonance and relevance' to Cecil Sharp, and in particular his Appalachian travels and song collecting between 1915-1918.
The residential was immediately followed by 3 concerts (one in Shrewsbury, and two in London), these performances were professionally recorded, and will be mixed and produced for a CD release in the summer, a DVD is also being edited for release
This song accounts Cecil Sharp and Maud Karpeles' first trip into Appalachia in 1916. Patsy Reid begins with a song in Scots Gaelic, followed by Caroline Herring and Kathryn Roberts, and ends with Jackie Oates singing a verse from Sweet William, the ballad referred to in this song.
Jim Moray dulcimer, Leonard Podolak banjo, Steve Knightley guitar, and Andy Cutting accordion.
