Studio Notes with Julia Lane
Julia Lane has loved, sung, researched and created folk music since childhood. As an adolescent, she studied music theory and took guitar lessons from a lutenist specializing in Elizabethan songs. She became active in madrigal and Renaissance music groups as well as performing as a soloist. After graduating from Phillips Exeter Academy in 1974, her interest in traditional folk music and lore led her to study in Oxford, England. For over forty years, she has conducted in-depth research into the social history and folkways of the Celtic lands and her native New England which has resulted in multi-media programs blending history and myth with both traditional and original music.
