Musicians for Human Rights: Musicians

Folk Music in a Suffolk Pub

 Share / Embed   

This video was made in a pub somewhere in Suffolk in December 1996. The point of placing this here is to illustrate some of the tradition of folk music in Britain. This spontaneous form of group music lies at the base of the folk tradition not just in the UK but all over the world. Many of the people involved in traditional music also are connected to Human Rights issues and consequently we would very much like to develop connections with all types of folk music around the world.

There is of course a very strong connection with Human Rights and the lyrics of traditional music. This is another reason for wanting to develop the connection. What we can offer musicians involved in human rights is a platform and safe haven from which their musical voice can be heard. If you are interested in placing that voice here then contact musicians@humanrightstv.com

All copyright for music and art remains with the artists and Human Rights TV welcomes the support of all artists.
As a volunteer organisation focused on social responsibility rather than profit all support is valuable to our work.

We gather Human Rights Video as we build our archive of activity in all areas related to Human Rights work in the 21st Century.

For those who wish to place their own testimony, work and voice on the Human Rights TV archive
please contact jcmoody@humanrightstv.com if you want to talk blues/music or info@humanrightstv.com for all else..
