Just when we were feeling a bit sad, on the eve of taking down the Merched Chwarel exhibition at Llyfrgell Blaenau Library, we received a lovely email from Kathy Hopewell. She was one of the 15 women taking part in the Llechwedd Canu Chwarel Singing Slate workshop in Blaenau Ffestiniog, led by Jamie Dawes in January 2019.
Kathy says she’s written the piece after the workshop, and just recently rediscovered it.
We’ve included some images from our exhibition in Llechwedd, which is open in the Old Bank and Dressing Shed until 2nd November (entry free), and a link to some of the sounds from Canu Chwarel too.
Diolch o galon, Kathy!
