Ensemble Cymru bring us an enthralling programme which spans the centuries. J. S. Bach’s Sonata in Eb minor, BWV1031, will represent the pre-industrial age and will be followed by Schumann’s Adagio and Allegro in Ab major for Oboe and Piano, Opus 70, representing the age of the Industrial Revolution which made possible the building of Telford’s bridge. The Post Industrial Revolution period will be covered by Francis Poulenc’s Trio for Oboe, Bassoon and Piano, FP43, and the premiere of a piece commissioned jointly by Ensemble Cymru and the Festival from local composer, Mared Emlyn, will celebrate Telford’s genius in a contemporary but approachable idiom.
Daw Ensemble Cymru â rhaglen sy’n rhychwantu’r canrifoedd. Sonata yn Eb, BWV1031, J. S. Bach sy’n cynrychioli’r oes cyn-ddiwydiannol, yna, Adagio ac Allegro yn Ab fwyaf i’r obo a’r piano gan Schummann, Opus 70, sy’n cynrychioli’r Oes Ddiwydiannol wnaeth hi’n bosib i adeiladu pont Telford. Bydd y cyfnod nesaf yn cael ei ddarlunio gan waith Francis Poulenc, Triawd i’r obo, basŵn a phiano, FP43. Yna, clywir darn a gomisiynwyd yn arbennig gan Ensemble Cymru a’r Ŵyl, gan gyfansoddwr lleol, Mared Emlyn, i ddathlu athrylith Telford mewn steil gyfoes a hygyrch.

There are no set admission charges to festival concerts. Audiences are invited to contribute to a collection at the end of each performance towards the very considerable costs involved in running the festival. We very much appreciate the generous support which we receive from our sponsors in making this arrangement possible and allowing access to the festival to everyone, irrespective of their financial means. Any profit accruing is carried forward to ensure that the festival continues to flourish in the years ahead.
