Windborne: Music For Midwinter

***Windborne, the acclaimed American vocal quartet, present Music for Midwinter in England for the first time, with songs from their seasonal album ‘To Warm the Winter Hearth’. Blending English carols, solstice songs, wassails, early American folklore, and global polyphony, their programme celebrates the warmth of community in the year’s coldest season.

Renowned for radiant harmonies and commanding stage presence, **Windborne** combines scholarship with passion. Years of study with singing masters in Corsica, Lithuania, the Basque country and beyond inform their unique sound. Songlines hails them as ‘the most exciting vocal group in a generation’, while *KLOF* exclaims Windborne have ‘an almost supernatural grasp of harmony singing.’

Beyond their winter repertoire, Windborne are known for albums such as *Song on the Times*, exploring workers’ struggles past and present, and *Of Hard Times & Harmony*, which reimagines songs of reflection and action from movements for social and environmental justice with contemporary resonance. Their commitment to justice and solidarity gives their performances rare depth.

More than a concert, *Music for Midwinter* is an invitation to gather, reflect, and celebrate resilience. With stories, humour, and moments of audience participation, Windborne offer an evening of beauty, connection, and transcendent voices to warm the winter hearth.
