Morpeth Northumbrian Gathering 2026

Morpeth Northumbrian Gathering 2026

Pop Up Folk Ensemble

We are delighted to be once again supporting the Morpeth Nothumbrian Gathering, which is taking place on the 10th, 11th and 12th of April 2026. We will be running a ‘pop up’ ensemble, which will give it’s one and only performance at the Saturday night concert.

To take part, you need to be available for both the rehearsal (10am – 10.50am tbc) and the evening concert (6.30pm – 8.30pm tbc) on Saturday 11th April.

We will be playing a set of tunes: (DETAILS COMING SOON!). There will be a choice of parts (tune, advanced harmony, easy harmony, chords) and the ensemble is open to players of all levels of ability. All folk instruments welcome.

We’ll only have an hour to rehearse, so there will not be time for us to teach all of the tunes by ear. Unless you are a confident sight-reader, you might like to learn the tunes beforehand using the resources on this page. There’s no pressure to give a perfect performance, though. The main aim is to have fun!

SHEET MUSIC AND AUDIO TRACKS COMING SOON…

You are very welcome to contact us at music@phoenixfolk.co.uk if you have any questions or need any extra help before the day. If you would like a recording of the easy harmony, sheet music in a different clef or sheet music transposed for your instrument, please email us and we’ll make sure you have what you need.
