about

I arranged these tunes in the style of a Breton dance suite - rond de loudeac:
GLYNTAWE - this melody I learnt from & after the playing of Ceri Rhys Matthews and Diarmuid Johnson.
CONSÊT WILLIAM AB OWEN PENCRAIG- collected from Martin Leamon
HOFFEDD LEWIS HOPKIN - learnt from and after the playing of Ceri Rhys Matthews.
SOUTH GOWER BREAKDOWN- this tune is made by Martin Leamon
CÂN DYFFRYN CLETTWR- learnt from and after the playing of Ceri Rhys Matthews.

lyrics

These lyrics are from the book "Ancient National Airs of Gwent and Morganwg" collected by Maria Jane Williams, (a facsimile of the 1844 edition).
Title: Glyn Tawy

Lle glan yw Ystradgynlais
Lle glan yw'r Ystradfawr
Lle glan yw holl Glyntawe
O Abercraf i lawr
Lle pur i droi nefeiliad
Yw mynnydd du Sir Gaer
Oes un o rhain gyffelib
I fferam Jack ynghar
