Who decides what stories are remembered? Can anyone make a stone circle? And when we talk about old folk rituals and songs, who are the folk we are choosing to remember?In this four part series, Meg Elliot explores folk traditions in their many guises. Her quest takes her from a Ceiligh hall in central London in the search for lost folk songs, to a Glasgow housing estate to visit a new ‘ancient’ stone circle, and over hillsides across the UK talking to artists and singers and folk revivalists. The programmes explore the ways in which our identities are formed in part by tales, places and music. It looks at the potential heritage has, as an experience of the past in the present, to rewrite established narratives and re-empower communities at the heart of these stories.Heart and Stone is an Overcoat Media production for BBC Sounds Audio Lab Written, Produced and Presented by Meg Elliot Executive Producer-Steven Rajam Sound Design and Mixing-Meic Parry Original Music-Elin and Carys Commissioning Editor-Khaliq Meer
