Golden Bough's "Music
in the Schools" (Click here for contact info Photo by Irene Young |
For over 30 years, Golden Bough has been bringing their music into elementary
schools, offering students the opportunity
to enjoy the wealth of folk
music from Ireland, America and around the world. Following their introductory assembly,
where the children are
acquainted with the group's collection of musical instruments and are given a basic
understanding of folk music,
Golden Bough often returns to present a follow -up program.
Golden Bough is also available for concert performances at
Children's
& family festivals and in concert. Their program can be tailored to
the particular event.

Since they first began performing in schools, Golden Bough has
presented their program to hundreds of thousands of students of all ages.
They have gained
rave reviews and acclaim from students, teachers, parents and administrators.
"A wonderful combination of
enjoyable music, audience participation and education."
"Golden Bough has a range of talent that seems uncommon among performers - let
alone performers who are available to schools."
"All of our students, including special education, Sheltered English and
kindergarten, thoroughly enjoyed the performances.
The players were knowledgeable on the
music and gave wonderful background information on each instrument."
"I know how difficult it is to keep the attention of 300 students during a 45
minute performance, but that wasn't a problem as
the children not only enjoyed learning
about the different musical instruments, they had a lot of fun singing and clapping
along."
