Young Tradition Vermont helps ensure there are opportunities for young players, singers and dancers to be supported, and have opportunities to learn and perform. YTV encourages young people to develop and experiment as part of a living tradition passed down from previous generations. The organization supports musicians and dancers who are young in age, but are ‘old souls’, the latest in a long line of tradition bearers at the intersection of the past and the future.
