A chance to discuss how we can help Wales' song tradition to thrive. Bring your ideas and suggestions. This will be a bilingual discussion with simultaneous translation available, facilitated by singer and trac manager, Blanche Rowen.

• Tunes! Tunes! Tunes! But what about the chords?

Whether you're accompanying a song, or playing dance tunes, the accompaniment can really make it come alive. We'll look at keys, chords, linking them up effectively, and everything else that harmony can do for the music. For any instrument capable of playing chords! With Neil Browning.

• Flute and Whistle

An hour of flute and whistle playing with Jordan Williams (Elfen), exploring ornaments and phrasing to give your flute playing a real traditional flavour.

Storytelling is becoming really popular in Wales, for audiences of all ages - here's your chance to try, in this bilingual workshop. Hints and tips on how to find and tell a traditional story, using folk tales and fairy tales from around Wales

• Alawon! Alawon! Alawon! Ond beth am y cordiau?

P’un ai ‘rydych yn cyfeilio cân neu’n chwarae alawon dawns, gall y cyfeiliant rhoi bywyd newydd i’r cyfrwng.

Ar gyfer unrhyw offeryn sy’n gallu cynhyrchu cordiau. Gyda Neil Browning.
