A totally unique and much needed showcasing of songs and musicians few of us knew were Welsh or of Welsh descent.
It is a virtual Hall of Fame of Welsh Music who have left their ineligible mark on world music. To compliment this historical
significant night to end World-Welsh Festival celebrations, we shall be showcasing a world Welsh first
showing of the World Welsh contribution to music. Culturally mesmerising for all up and coming bands, singers and
musicians of Wales and the sort of inspiring night to start a new wave of historically empowered Welsh singing and song-writing talent
