DESCRIPTION:The Coppers have been renowned for their harmony singing\, unu
 sual in the English Tradition and possibly church-derived\; this fact was 
 noted when the Brothers Tom and James (Brasser) Copper were first ‘colle
 cted’ by noted classical singer and musicologist Mrs Kate Lee in 1898. T
 he two were made honorary founder members of the Folk Song Society in 1899
  (later to become the English Folk Dance and Song Society) – a fact of w
 hich they remained blissfully ignorant!\nThe land and specifically the Sus
 sex Downland was always the backdrop to the family music and a deep love o
 f the surrounding countryside is never far away from many songs in the rep
 ertoire – these were songs in celebration of their everyday work and the
  pride taken in it\; they were treasured and handed down purely through th
 e oral tradition.\nPart of our 2025-2026 Recital Series.\nFree admission. 
 Suggested £5 donation to church funds.
