Thread Name: The folk tradition in Wales
Subject: RE: The folk tradition in Wales
my S.Welsh mrs is still curious if anyone knows anything about
any possibilitly of older pre mid 19th century music traditions
existing in the remaining music of Patagonian Welsh community..
maybe in the same way that some older immigrant songs & tunes have survived in a 'purer' form in isolated areas of rural America,
whereas the same old songs have 'evolved' and become more 'diluted'
in the lands of origin ?
