Thanks - to all who helped me find the harp music CDs which feature "David and The White Rock" (Dafydd y Gareg Wen).

I ordered both the Voyager 'Celtic Harp' CD (very cheap, about $6) and a full price CD from Marquis. Both are very good indeed but for 'David and The White Rock' the Voyager stands out as being truly excellent.

Thanks also to CDnow for their top-notch service.

Thanks Mudcatters. Frank

Glad we could help, Frank. You know where we are if you need us again! (I'm thinking of getting that Voyager CD myself - is it an entirely harp-solo album or are there other instruments/voice on it?)

Mere pedantry, but Dafydd y gareg wen = David of the white rock, not David andthe white rock.

Slap wrists Frank !!! You are quite right Nigel, I blame it entirely on a visitor we have staying with us from Sweden - we were up with the grapes until 2 am.

Hi Bonnie. It is all harp, 26 tracks of it. The 'David Of The White Rock' is particularly appealing and (I think) follows the traditional score. It's a good CD at any price with many popular tracks, but at the giveaway price tag it's a must.

Sadly I could not recommend the other CD - too many 'twiddly bits' which depart from the main themes.
