GUEST,Sian in Wales | Help: Folksong jargon (19) | RE: Help: Folksong jargon | 04 Apr 00 |
Just as an add-on to Kathy Wallis' message re: the Mari Llwyd (et al.) singing in Wales. It's generically referred to as Ymryson Canu (ymryson = um RUH son, challenge, contention) and (canu = CA nee, to sing) - quite common at one time in community singing and special occasions such as Christmas (above) and weddings. |
