0:22:130:22:17

-They created a quiet,

-effective sound.

0:22:180:22:21

-Because of that we had the dynamic

-variation with strong fortes...

0:22:220:22:27

-..and they really sang

-from the heart.

0:22:270:22:30

-That really impressed me.

0:26:330:26:39

-This is the first time Rees Webster

0:30:010:30:05

-What are the impressions of

-the local people of this festival?

0:30:060:30:10

-Here's a local, broadcaster

-and journalist Arwyn Jones.

0:30:110:30:15

-In the middle of all the excitement,

-and competition, colour and fun...

0:30:190:30:24

-..it's easy to forget

-that the original purpose...

0:30:240:30:27

-..of the Llangollen Eisteddfod...

0:30:280:30:30

-..was to show how culture

-could pull people together...

0:30:300:30:34

-..after the battles

-of the Second World War.

0:30:340:30:37

-What better example of that than

-to invite a choir from Germany...

0:30:370:30:42

-..to compete in Llangollen in 1949,

-four years after the war.

0:30:420:30:47

-Imagine what went

-through the mind of the man....

0:30:490:30:53

-..that presented from the stage,

-Hywel Roberts.

0:30:530:30:56

-He lost his brother

-on the beaches of Normandy.

0:30:560:30:59

-When the choir took to the stage,

-he announced...

0:30:590:31:02

-.."Ladies and gentlemen, please

-welcome our friends from Germany."

0:31:030:31:07

-That said everything about the

-nature of the Llangollen Eisteddfod.

0:31:070:31:11

-The competition was delayed

-due to the applause of the audience.

0:31:120:31:16

-The choir members were so grateful,

-they were in tears.

0:31:160:31:19

-The history of the Llangollen

-Eisteddfod has many such examples.

0:31:190:31:23

-In the middle of the Cold War...

0:31:230:31:25

-..choirs from America would sing

-with members of the Soviet Union.

0:31:260:31:30

-More recently, children

-from the Ukraine performing...

0:31:300:31:34

-..with Russian children

-during the recent conflict.

0:31:350:31:38

-It shows that people can unite

-when countries are torn apart.

0:31:390:31:43

-There are definite lessons there

-for our politicians.

0:31:430:31:47

-As a local lad, a Wrexham lad...

0:31:470:31:49

-..the Llangollen Eisteddfod

-means something different to me.

0:31:490:31:53

-As part of the festival, local

-families invited competitors...

0:31:530:31:58

-..to stay with them in their homes.

0:31:580:32:00

-Over the years, people from

-around the world stayed with us.

0:32:000:32:04

-One story that stays in the

-mind...

0:32:050:32:07

-..is Johnny and Simon from Soweto,

-South Africa.

0:32:070:32:10

-As black teachers,

-they couldn't believe...

0:32:110:32:13

-..that they could drink

-in a white man's pub.

0:32:140:32:16

-They still lived

-under the laws of apartheid.

0:32:170:32:20

-What about the future?

0:32:200:32:22

-over everything.

0:32:220:32:25

-Challenges and opportunities

-will arise.

0:32:250:32:28

-The challenge

-will be controlling immigration.

0:32:290:32:32

-Will it be more difficult

-for people to come here to compete?

0:32:320:32:36

-In terms of the opportunities,

-one of the aims of Brexit...

0:32:360:32:40

-..is to sell Britain and Wales

-to the rest of the world.

0:32:400:32:44

-What better way to do that

-than to allow people to come...

0:32:440:32:48

-..to events such as Llangollen.

0:32:480:32:51

-After the break, more dancing

-and the Open Folk Solo.

0:32:520:32:56

-First, sit back and enjoy...

0:32:570:32:59

-..a performance

-from our Indonesian friends.
