Newsletter of the Friends of the Llangollen Llythyr Newyddion Cyfeillion Eisteddfod

International Musical Eisteddfod Gerddorol Ryngwladol Llangollen

G
wyn L Williams launched this
year’s Eisteddfod in St David’s
Hall, Cardiff on Monday
January 14th, just two weeks before
leaving to take up his new post.
In the recently published review
of arts organisations by Sir Brian
McMaster, three crucial qualities
were highlighted: Innovation, Risk-
taking and Excellence. Gwyn told the
audience that over the past few years..
“we in Llangollen have taken risks,
we have been innovative and above
all we have promoted excellence.”
Gwyn highlighted the development
of the Eisteddfod’s Community Days
as one of the important innovations
of the last few years. One of these,
International Children’s Day, last
year brought together children from
“ethnic minority communities on our
door-step in North Wales” to deliver
the Peace Message along with the
children from Llangollen and district.
Diversity
Diversity is another theme of the
Eisteddfod, talked about by both
Gwyn and Mervyn Cousins. This
diversity is not only found in the
wide variety of cultures and styles
of the competitions, but also in the
audiences which represent many
aspects of British life, from schools to
minority and faith groups as well as
the core Eisteddfod audience.
Essence of Llangollen
Mervyn Cousins, who will now act
as the Eisteddfod’s artistic director,
went on to describe the ‘Essence of
Llangollen’ as a unique spirit of peace

On
Gwyn Williams, who
has been the Chief
Executive of the
Eisteddfod since 2001,
is leaving to become
the 2012 Cultural
Olympiad Creative
Programmer for Wales.
Former Chairman
Gethin Davies gives
us this appreciation of
Gwyn’s contribution to
the Eisteddfod
D

the Eisteddfod the number
of people attending and the
financial position have improved
dramatically.
Big Stars
During this period big stars have
appeared in the Pavilion including

and goodwill between all nations.
He believes this still gives Llangollen
something unique, despite the large
number of international music festivals
that are around today.
International Champions
He announced that 110 groups
(not including the soloists) have been
selected to appear this year, most
of which are already national and
international champions, promising to
set even higher standards.
Mervyn also introduced Mark
Walmsley of UKvisas in the Foreign
and Commonwealth Office, who has
promised to give an update of the
visa situation for competitors in the
next edition of Limelight. Mervyn also
highlighted how Friends’ initiatives,
such as the Pre-Concert Talks,
are now an important part of the
Eisteddfod’s progamme.
The spirit of Llangollen was
highlighted by the performance

Shirley Bassey, Bryn Terfel, Leslie
Garret and Jose Carreras. Children
now play a much larger part in the
festival and a wider range of world
music is being performed.
Relinquished Duties
The course for 2008 is now set.
Gwyn has, since the beginning of the
year, gradually relinquished his duties.
It is therefore possible that a new
appointment will not be made until
after the forthcoming Eisteddfod.
Biggest Show in the World

Council of Wales’s North Wales Office

given by the Ataturk Dancers from
Northern Cyprus (main photo left,

Manahan Thomas, sadly unable to
sing as she was recovering from a
long flight. But she will be singing in
the final Sunday concert along with
Alfie Boe and David Kempster,
accomanied by the Orchestra of the
Welsh National Opera.
Super-Group
However, the All Angels, described
as an all-girl classical “super-group”,
were able to give us a taste of what
we can expect to hear on the Friday
night’s concert, by singing ‘Steal
Away’ and Simon & Garfunkel’s
‘Sound of Silence’. Preparing them
for their first visit to the Eisteddfod,
Hayley Westernra told them how
amazing the whole event is. Now they
are happy to add their names to the
list of stars to appear here.
Strapped for Cash
Also present at the launch was
the number of
people attending
and the financial
position have
improved
dramatically.
It is intended that funding will be
provided for cultural and sporting
events to take place over the period
up to the Olympic Games and that
Wales can maximise the benefit of
being part of the biggest show in the
world.
Gwyn was born and educated in
Anglesey and studied music at Bangor
and London. He was previously Senior
Producer of Music BBC Wales and
Director of Theatr Ardudwy, Harlech.
The Friends thank Gwyn for all his
help and support since he became
Chief Executive. We wish him every
success in his new and challenging
post.
Eisteddfod prize winner, Eleanor
Burnham, now Liberal Democrat
Assembly Member for North Wales.
She told the press that the Eisteddfod
is an excellent way to raise the profile
of Wales on the International Scene.
However, the funds that used to
support the festival and other good
causes in Wales are now being
diverted to the 2012 London Olympics.
She is concerned that this will make
it harder for such organisations to
survive as they become increasingly
strapped for cash.
Huge Impact
As Gethin Davies has told us
(above), Gwyn L Williams has made
a huge impact on the Eisteddfod as
CEO for the past seven years not the
least of which is a healthy balance
sheet.
Gwyn told those assembled for the
launch that he was handing over to a
“truly wonderful team” when he takes
over his new duties, and wished them
every success for the future.

hardships endured by

n December I found myself once
again ‘singing for my supper’ only
on this occasion it was for my
lunch. I had been invited to talk to
Soughton Ladies Luncheon Club at
Soughton Hall in Flintshire.
I must have sounded a little
reluctant to commit myself to a 100
mile journey and the vagaries of
winter weather. However, I was won
over by the promise of a stunning
setting, a festive lunch and the Hall
decorated majestically for Christmas.
What was even better was that I
would be speaking before lunch
and could relax and enjoy my meal
rather than be subject to the slight
nervous apprehension that inevitably
accompanies such occasions.
Soughton Hall really does enjoy a
magnificent setting (see photo below).
It was built as a Bishop’s Palace in
1714, was reworked in the 1820’s but
fell onto harder times after the Second
World War.
18th century splendour
In 1986 it was purchased by the
Rodenhurst family and over the course
of 12 months the decline was arrested.
Modern technology was installed and
the interior refurbished to standards
approaching their original 18th century
splendour. It has been home to many

various parts to the preparation of the
festival had already started in earnest

to move into a different ‘gear’ following

fastest-selling debut CD ever; they
are our ‘headline’ for Friday’s concert,
bringing their fresh sound and bright
look to the Eisteddfod for the first
time.  Their repertoire is a full mix of
classical, choral, opera, and pop, and
we look forward to seeing them again

or the last eight years I’ve
spent the first week of my
summer holidays taking people
to their seats, stewarding, directing
cars, singing on stage or trying
(unsuccessfully) to sell programmes.
For the past three years I’ve
helped out in the Competitors’ Club,
which has to be my favourite job yet.
Not even the torrential rain (or the
prospect of our cars having to be
dragged out of the muddy car park by
tractors) could dampen our spirits as
we made endless amounts of coffee
for chatty singing and dancing groups
from all over the world.
The competitors’ club was set up to
provide competitors with free drinks,
snacks and a place to rest while on
better than before we managed to
decorate with more colourful flags and
banners, and our extra space was put
to good use as many competitors used
it as a place to practice before going
on stage. National pride plays a part
as each dancing group tries to outdo
the last by involving more competitor’s
club staff and random passers by in
their performances.
Groups from Ireland, South
Africa, India, England and Croatia
all performed to entertain their fellow
competitors. The highlight of the week
for the competitor’s club staff had to
be an impromptu ballroom dancing
display to the dirty dancing soundtrack
(a club favourite), by a group from the
Czech Republic, where we all joined in
and I proved that I had two left feet!
Sadly, due to university timetables,
new jobs and holidays, many of the
usual volunteers were unable to return
to the club this year. However, our
new volunteers from Ysgol Dinas Bran
quickly got into the swing of things and
many have already signed up for this
year!

hard act to follow, but I will definitely

not! - Ed) and dance (badly) into my
summer holidays!
