Those nice people at Canolfan Soar have organized a Noson Werin (folk evening) at Soar Chapel in Merthyr Tydfil. Hooray I say. I believe it is bilingual. I'm going anyway, and may even try and play. More details from their website:

On: Friday 12/08/2011 Time: 7.30pm
At: Canolfan Soar, Pontmorlais, Merthyr Tydfil, CF47 8UB
Canolfan Soar and Clera
WELSH FOLK EVENING - What do you think traditional Welsh music sounds like? You no doubt have heard Irish and Scottish music, but what about Welsh traditional music? We have a huge range of fabulous Welsh songs, airs and dance tunes. So why not come along to the Welsh folk night at Canolfan Soar on Friday August 12th and have a great night joining in with some traditional Welsh tunes

If you play a stringed instrument such as the guitar, harp, mandolin, banjo, fiddle or a wind instrument such as the flute or whistle and would like to learn some Welsh tunes, then please bring it along!

Everyone welcome! Tickets are £5 and are available NOW. Contact Greg on (01685) 722176 or greg@merthyrtudful.org
