Folk Arts Society - Oral Recitation

Oral Recitation

The voice of one person giving life to the memories and imaginations of
others. One true voice and one powerful story can make the everyday world fade. Hear the voices of the past come alive through stories and poetry. This is our portable history. Our stories follow Newfoundland and Labradorians to all corners of the globe and back home again. Tell a tale, share a moment and listen to a master or write your own. We all have a story to tell..

If you have a video on YouTube or an audio file that captures the spirit of Newfoundland and Labrador recitations, please submit it to office@nlfolk.com for consideration for posting on this page. All participants must sign a limited use agreement to allow us to post your contribution.
