Mae Barddair an Cheoil yn grŵp bach o feirdd a cherddorion sy'n ymroddedig i gydweithio, ysgrifennu a pherfformio yn eu hieithoedd brodorol - Gwyddeleg a Chymraeg. Y cyfan o orllewin Cymru a Gorllewin Iwerddon a phob un yn byw yn agos at y môr, maent wedi dewis y môr a'r aberoedd, eu newidiadau, yn sgil newid yn yr hinsawdd, a'r creaduriaid sydd dan fygythiad gan y newidiadau hyn.

Maent eisoes wedi dechrau datblygu deunydd newydd ac i recordio, ac maent yn gobeithio teithio yng Nghymru ac Iwerddon tua diwedd eleni, gan berfformio yn yr awyr agored ac i-mewn, a gweithio mewn ysgolion. Yn y cyfamser, byddant yn rhyddhau perfformiad digidol cyntaf, am ddim i'r awyr, i hyrwyddo a dathlu Diwrnod Cyrlod y Byd ar 21ain mis Ebrill eleni, yn cydweithio ag Echoes a RSPB. Bydd hyn yn codi ymwybyddiaeth o faterion amgylcheddol a gwahoddir cyfraniadau i'r elusennau priodol.

Rhaglen blynyddol digwyddiadau cyffroes yn Colombia a Chymru

Mae'n ddrwg gennym, dim ond yn Saesneg y mae'r darn hwn ar hyn o bryd.
2019 has been designated the UNESCO Year of Indigenous Languages. Welsh is one of the oldest indigenous languages of Europe, and we want to celebrate her in every way we can. Colombia, too, is rich in indigenous languages, and the legacy of indigenous culture is felt throughout the country in a million ways. The way of life of the mountain campesinos on their small mixed farms is strikingly similar, too, the culture of the Gwerin in rural Wales. So – Cerrig Camu are going to Wales this October to perform, to learn, to make connections, and above all to make friends.

The aim of our initiative is to open channels of communication, develop understandings and collaboration, and create new opportunities for traditional musicians and audiences in rural Colombia and rural Wales. We’ll achieve this through an active cultural collaboration between traditional musicians in the two cultures. The numbers involved in this first stage will be small, keeping our footfall – economic as well as cultural – as light as possible, and creating a series of events that small rural communities can welcome with minimum disruption. We’ll be playing in a big-city folk festival, and also in mountain villages and even on farms across rural Santander.

The project is not designed to be a ‘one-off’ series of events creating an impact and soon forgotten. It will act as the best kind of benign cultural collision, and will engender new exciting encounters in the future.

The initiative is growing through the following stages:

  • May – October 2019. An exchange of material and ideas between the musicians concerned, which will enable them to explore convergences and contrasts, shared themes and different approaches, between their two traditions. They will also be able to discuss and experiment on the opportunities to share and combine a performance.
  • October – November 2019. A short tour by three Welsh musicians; Osian Morris, Iestyn Tyne, and Gwilym Bowen Rhys, and their Colombian introducer/ translator, of two regions in rural Colombia, supported by the Colombian traditional musicians participating in the project. This will give an opportunity for the musicians to play together, to further develop their understandings of each other’s culture, to develop working friendships and to explore the responses of the audiences they address. The performances will take place in Campesino villages, indigenous communities, universities and concert halls.
  • November 2019 – July 2020. Informed and inspired by the experiences on tour, the two sets of musicians will work at distance again, developing and choreographing a shared performance which will showcase the two traditions to a Welsh audience, and form the basis of a CD recording.
  • July- August 2020. A second shared tour, this time of rural communities in Wales, will be combined with recording sessions and media opportunities.

Any initiative of this kind is as strong as its partners, whose participation, support and advice will be invaluable throughout. We cannot thank Wales Arts International enough for their support and advice – they have made this venture possible.
Others include:

  • The Arts Council of Wales
  • Fiesta Tiple en la Noche, Bucaramanga
  • The Autonomous Indigenous University of Colombia
  • Simacota Annual Festival of Culture and Sport
  • Trac
  • Theatr Felinfach

Venues and activities to be arranged, but the tour will certainly include participation in the National Eisteddfod of Wales in Tregaron, Ceredigion.

Above all, we are determined that the initiative will not be the sort of ‘one-off’ event that flares briefly like a shooting star, creating expectations doomed to disappointment, but the beginning of a robust, sustainable and mutually respectful interaction.
