JIB is Jim Mageean, Ingrid en Barry Temple, drie top zangers uit Noord-Oost Engeland.
Ze hebben een krachtig en uitgebreid repertoire van zeeliederen en shanties, zowel traditioneel als wel geschreven door Barry.
Ze zingen in een geweldige vocale harmonie samen op vele maritieme festivals.

 

Jim Mageean

 Jim Mageean

Jim Mageean has been a leading figure in the world of maritime music for many years and has been involved with Liereliet from the start. 

Jim has been involved with Liereliet from the beginning. Without him and his then singing buddy Johnny Collins, Liereliet might never have gotten off the ground.
We are very happy that he is participating in the. "JIB" as well as with his own video
'Li-Li-Li' concert.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kat yn t Seil

Kat yn't Seil

"Kat yn" t Seil "was mainly active in the period from 1986 to 2005.
The group played at home and abroad with folk repertoire in Dutch and Frisian.
They also played many traditional Dutch dance melodies.
Songs with maritime themes have always been an important part of the repertoire.
In recent years, they sometimes performed together again, and those were always exceptionally special moments.

Nanne Ankie actie

Nanne & Ankie

Ankie and Nanne have been playing together since 1980, initially in groups such as Irolt, Kat yn 't Seil, Liereliet and Kajto and later mainly as a duo.
From that moment on, they have also been involved in the maritime song culture of the Netherlands - as researchers and as singers - and they are therefore considered leading musicians in this field.
Many traditional songs by sailors and fishermen - in Dutch and in Frisian - they have found and made known again.
In addition, Nanne & Ankie have - over the years - made a number of music theater programs with maritime, historical themes.
Singing in Dutch, Frisian, Esperanto and sometimes in other languages they released over 40 albums on LP and CD
They regularly make concert tours in countries such as France, England, Spain and Germany, but also outside Europe: in recent years they have made various tours in America and also in Australia and Asia.

 

Onst Sch1

Onstuimig Schuim

Onstuimig Schuim has been associated with the Liereliet for years and they absolutely want to be there.
They have a special place in the world of Maritime music and enjoy performing their singing and music with theatrical aspects.

Liereliet Festival 18 - 21 October 2019

Foundation Liereliet Workum. (International festival of Maritime Music)

Every year Liereliet Workum organizes a festival of maritime music, the so called International Festival of Maritime Music in Workum. In this festival Shanties and songs of the sea are important.
In former times of big sailingships shanties were sang to controle proceedings and/or pace.
The festival is always in the weekend before the start of the "Strontrace", "Beurtveer", and "Fishingdays" in Workum, but as an organization independent of these activities.
The festival is always in fall, the first weekend from the northern holidays.

It's a festival with:

- Shanties in the most common way, shanties sung by a precentor or shantyman, with a choir (the audience) for the choruses.
- Explanation and background information about the origin and use on board of large ships about the work songs.
- Musicians with a great conectivity with the sea by work or early work or by research to bring out and preserve cultural heritage.
- A wide selection of manifestations of these songs.
- Original and newly shanties and sea songs written in own language and/or dialect
- A strong international character of both participants and audience. 

 

The Foundation Liereliet set one's mind on to the public:

- to get acquainted with the traditional way of singing shanties
- to get acquainted with traditional songs or out of the tradition of other forms of singing during working at for example fishing or around the harbor.
- to get acquainted with the live in- and at sea.
- to raise awareness of the own maritime culture by presenting what other cultures have to offer.
- to offer a varied of groups from home and abroad, who bring traditional seasongs at their own way mainly in the native language.
- to give the audience the opportunity to actively participate.
- to bring back the maritime heritage of music from where is comes, namely the "ferny people"

 

The Festival distinguishes itselfs from other maritime festivals in The Netherlands by: 

 

- giving the audience the opportunty to sing the choruses and songs along.
- during the festival the choruses are presented via projection.
- Unlike other festivals organized in the Netherlands, the emphasis is not on to shanty choirs, but to the originality and authenticity of the shanties and the embodiment of it.
- the festla is having an educational character.
- In the theme shanties and seasongs the music/theater spectacle is unique in the Netherlands.
- from aboard there is a lot of attention and a great appearance.
