Welcome to the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff for what is | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
both a unique event and an historic occasion, | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
featuring the world premiere performance | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
of a brand-new work by Sir Karl Jerkins and Mererid Hopwood. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
The work, entitled Cantata Memoria, | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
is part of a commemorative event which marks | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
the 50th anniversary of the Aberfan disaster, | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
when 116 children and 28 adults lost their lives as a result | 0:00:23 | 0:00:29 | |
of a massive coal waste tip sliding onto the school and village. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:34 | |
There are world-famous performers on stage, including Bryn Terfel, | 0:00:36 | 0:00:40 | |
and an astonishing young violinist, Joo Yeon Sir. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
# Every good gift... # | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
To start the evening, | 0:00:46 | 0:00:47 | |
a very emotional performance by the Aberfan children of today, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:51 | |
together with the Ynysowen Male Choir, | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
formed following the disaster. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
# We are his hands | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
# Stewards of all his bounty | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
# His is the earth and his the heavens above | 0:01:02 | 0:01:07 | |
# Praise to thee, O Lord, for all creation | 0:01:07 | 0:01:13 | |
# Give us thankful hearts that we may see | 0:01:13 | 0:01:20 | |
# All the gifts we share and every blessing | 0:01:20 | 0:01:25 | |
# All things | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
# Come of thee. # | 0:01:29 | 0:01:36 | |

National Poet of Wales Ifor ap Glyn was commissioned to write | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
a piece for the occasion. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
Dame Sian Phillips reads his imagined letter from a grandmother | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
who lost one of her children in the tragedy while the other survived. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
My dearest granddaughter... | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
Silence is a hard habit to break. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:07 | |
Right from day one this wasn't something we talked about. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
It was a non-subject. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
So...how much should you know? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
It's part of your history, our family's history. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
But I can't share my guilt with you, | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
for making the child I lost go to school that morning. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
I wish I'd never shared that with your bampi even, | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
and that I felt guilty for having a child that lived. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:42 | |
But I wouldn't have had you otherwise, would I? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
None of this makes sense. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
There are pictures | 0:02:52 | 0:02:53 | |
that you ought to see, | 0:02:53 | 0:02:54 | |
from afterwards - | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
the first baby, the first wedding, | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
the first smiles... | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
..and how many hundreds have there been since then? Thank God. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:07 | |
Those pictures show us carrying on, because we have to. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:13 | |
But there are things that those photos can't show, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
like candles in pockets and... | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Your auntie was afraid of the dark. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
I would light a candle for her in the cemetery, lots did. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
These are things I will carry with me till I die... | 0:03:29 | 0:03:35 | |
..but do you have a right to them? | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
Because it was so terrible, | 0:03:41 | 0:03:45 | |
should you feel, like so many before you, | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
that it's your duty to comment, to sympathise, | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
to identify? | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
TRANSLATED FROM WELSH: | 0:03:56 | 0:03:57 | |
But I don't want you to forget either. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
I can only give your auntie flowers. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
I'll give you all the memories that I can. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |

The new composition Cantata Memoria has been over two years | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
in the making and marks the first collaboration between | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
world-renowned Welsh composer Sir Karl Jenkins | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
and poet and academic Mererid Hopwood. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
The work is music and a poem. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
It's not a documentary, but it's a genuine attempt to depict | 0:04:38 | 0:04:43 | |
a tragedy and express some hope and celebrate childhood. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
From the onset to the choir | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
naming all the children lost in the tragedy... | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
I thought that particularly moving. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
In a musical sense, incredibly clever, typical Karl Jenkins, | 0:05:00 | 0:05:04 | |
bringing through his immense knowledge of music. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
It's a very emotional piece, in a way it's a journey, | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
cos it takes us from utter darkness and despair | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
and then it progresses into light. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
# Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
# Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! # | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
The composer has also drawn on traditional Welsh folk music, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
hymns and children's songs, as well as quoting a Bach chorale. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:28 | |
We start the work with Welsh words, "pitran" and "patran", | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
which are onomatopoeic words for rainfall, | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
but quite rapidly turn into something quite sinister, | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
and there we use another pair of words from the Welsh language - | 0:05:40 | 0:05:45 | |
"twrw", which is a word for noise or din or loud sound, | 0:05:45 | 0:05:51 | |
and "bwrw", which is our word for hitting. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
Twrw and bwrw morph into buried | 0:05:55 | 0:05:59 | |
and the playing between and through languages | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
is a constant theme from the beginning to the end of the work. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:07 | |
