Welsh Music Legends Launch

This evening I went straight from the council meeting to the Waterfront Museum for the launch of the Welsh Music Legends CD. This is a joint venture between Ysgol Pen y Bryn and Cwmrhydyceirw Primary School.

Over a period of time the two schools worked with Welsh Music Legends such as Wyn Evans and Bonnie Tyler to record five classic songs - Calon Lan, Holding out for a Hero, Have a Nice Day, The Impossible Dream and Never Enough. An interactive book about the project can be viewed on iTunes here.

All the proceeds of selling the CD will go to Bobarth Cymru, who run a Therapy Centre to improve the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy in Wales.

The launch itself was a fantastic experience with the combined choirs of the two schools treating us to the songs on the album. The place was packed out with proud parents and relatives and at the end the performance got a deserved standing ovation.
