After a challenging few months, we are back with the Scottish Folk Song, "Comin Thro' The Rye".

Requiem

This new setting of the Requiem was written by Ceri in memory of Lena's father, Professor Mohammed Izzat who passed away in January. Professor Izzat loved Classical music so we have gone for a simple classical style. We hope that he would have liked it. Copyright Ceri Jones, Lena Izzat, January 2024. All Right Reserved

For This Reason

In a departure from our usual repertoire of British Folk Songs we are delighted to offer our version of For This Reason, a song written by Mal Pope for the Centenary of the Swansea and Brecon Diocese in 2023. Having recorded both the Welsh and English versions of Mal's Away In A Manger/I Orwedd Mewn Preseb in December 2022 we were keen to perform this joyous new Anthem. Thanks to Mal for his su...
Calon Lan

Not exactly a folk song but Calon Lan is a popular Welsh hymn. The lyrics were written in the 1890s by Daniel James and set to music by John Hughes. Calon Lan is a firm favourite in the repertoire of Welsh Male Voice choirs and often sung at Rugby Union matches involving the Welsh National team. Copyright Lena Izzat, Ceri Jones, May 2023.

Gloria
Просмотров 6 тыс.Год назад
In a break from our usual tradition of Folk Songs from the British Isles we present a setting of the Gloria. Part of this composition has been in Ceri's mind for some time but it was only recently completed so we thought that we would post it in time for the Coronation of His Majesty, King Charles III. That decision led to us learning and recording it in only about a week! The photographs are o...
There Was A Maid
Просмотров 16 тыс.Год назад
This duet is particularly special because we have written it ourselves in the style of a folk song. We were inspired by the lovely "Early One Morning" which we recorded recently and decided to follow a similar theme - that of a maiden in distress - but to have a happy ending. The whole song was composed over three evenings in January. We hope you enjoy "There Was A Maid".

Lovely video ❤😊👏👏
Thank you Atie 🤗
What a wonderful song this is (it’s modern and new, yet the tune is fun and lively, capturing the joy of His Spirit and the momentous occasion of 100 years of history of the churches in the Diocese) and your version of it was just lovely, Lena and Ceri! I also felt compelled to look up the Diocese and read all about it-most interesting! Thank you for creating this great video (the scenic Welsh landscape, complete with geese, green fields and ocean shores, plus the two of you in matching denim “shortalls” was really nice) and sharing it with us all!
Thanks so much Mickey, this is such a beautiful comment and means so much x
