Above: Rowing club members visiting Wavertree in 1929, Punta Arenas, Chile. Gift of Senor Rafael Osvaldo Cabrera Majoral, 1976. South Street Seaport Museum Archives. Our thanks to the Museum for permission to use this image. This photograph from our archives depicts several men aboard our very own Wavertree, dancing the cueca, also called zamacueca or marinera, a folk dance of northern Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Peru. This type of courtship dance is danced with the rhythmic music of guitars, usually in couples, passing and circling each other. Chilean sailors took the dance to Mexico eventually, and there it is called chilena.

Ballad sing: a ballad is a song that tells a story. Bring us your ballads from renowned collections, local history, family tradition, or just ripping good yarns.
Chanty sing: sadly, latency limits harmony, so we will gather in a song circle for solo chanteys, sea songs, maritime poetry, and entertainments at least faintly damp and salty.

USA --- New York
‡‡ NY - New York City. Virtual SOUTH STREET SEAPORT MUSEUM’s monthly SEA CHANTEYS AND MARITIME MUSIC. 1st Sundays, 2pm - 4pm EST, this is 7pm- 9pm UK time. From our living rooms and kitchens, and even from the deck of Wavertree, join us for our round-robin of shared sea songs, featuring members of The New York Packet and friends. Listen in, lead or request a song, and belt out the choruses for your neighbors to hear. Hosted by singers from the New York Packet. The event is FREE. Sign up on southstreetseaportmuseum.org/chanteysing to receive the Zoom link 24 hours prior. The song-leader's list fills up in advance, but of course you are still welcome to register and enjoy singing along. If you'd like to lead a song, be sure to register at least a week before the sing.

Monday -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USA --- New York
‡‡ NY - Corning. VIRTUAL VALLEY FOLK MUSIC TRANSATLANTIC ZOOM SINGS, Mondays, Weekly, 3-5:30 pm (or 6 at the latest) EST.
This is 8 - 10:30 pm UK time or 11 at the latest. We host a Trans-Atlantic Virtual Valley Folk Sing on Zoom for singers in our folk community, (Corning, NY) since our pub-sings, concerts and jams are all cancelled for now.
Our aim is to bring some US and UK singers together to sing for each other. One can mute your mics and sing and play along at home while your fellow musicians share their favorite songs. It’s not quite the same as being in the room, but for this trans-Atlantic bunch, it may be a perk of the lockdown to be able to see each other in this way (and one heck of a lot cheaper than a real visit). We chose the 3pm NY / 8pm UK time to suit some people who are not working long hours in the US, while not keeping the UK singers up too late. It is ok to arrive late or leave early. We use a numbering system so you know when your time to sing is coming.
We welcome any type of folk song, traditional or newly composed “in the tradition” (- think Jez Lowe, Bill Staines). Unlike in person, we are not insisting on a chorus or refrain. Sing unaccompanied or use an instrument.
Before you arrive, please find the Virtual Sing Zoom settings for your device on this website (complied by our good friends at US & UK Zoom sessions) focsle.org/virtual_index.php Scroll down to the Zoom settings. Especially if using an instrument, this is *essential*. Any questions? Please contact us for help preferably the day before the Sing.
To request the link to the Zoom sing, contact us at: info <at> valleyfolk.org
