Absolutely! I have played the fiddle for only 3 months, my Welsh pronunciation is deplorable, and I'm willing to ruin, in public, a beloved Welsh folk song. Is anything else needed? Perhaps I'll try writing a blues in Welsh, where I have more experi…

Ceri, the rules require images of only 50kb, but the 900 pixel minimum that Glyn asked for gives a pic of about 1.5mb. Even saved as a smallish JPEG it will never reach 50k. I downloaded one nice image to check the size others were using. It was 560…

What is your interest in or connection to Wales?
Somewhere in Wales lies a paternal ancestor. Centuries pass, but am still Welsh at heart.

Hi Peter,
No, I haven't been able to locate a score of Maids Of Montgomery. I feel certain. though, that it IS the one called Llancesau Drefaldwyn - "Llancesau" being the Welsh translation for "Maids", and Welsh speakers always call the area of Montgomeryshire "Drefaldwyn". Of maybe it's Montgomery Town they're referring to?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the welcome. So, you're familiar with the Hartt School. It's many years since I was a student there. Impressed that you're trying to learn Welsh. I do speak Welsh (both North and South Wales dialects), but I'm not at all sure how good a teacher I would be....I learned the language as a small child but only took it in school for a couple of years. I'm just wondering....saw that Rosetta Stone has a Welsh course. Rosetta Stone is supposed to be good.

Peter, thanks for the welcome message. No, I don't speak Welsh beyond a few words. I can read a little bit, just from seeing it. I've made a few tries with books and online sites and have hoped to go take a study course, but haven't yet. I'd really recommend checking out some of the current Welsh music if you haven't! yet!
