-Next, a performance

-from Bechgyn Bro Taf.

0:12:030:12:05

-One of their members is Owen Saer.

0:12:060:12:08

-The Plygain tradition -

-do we know when it started?

0:12:080:12:11

-Yes, the tradition started

-in the 17th century.

0:12:110:12:15

-If you split Wales

-into north and south...

0:12:150:12:20

-..in South Wales,

-you would have a service...

0:12:210:12:24

-..and a hymn from the Caniedydd.

0:12:240:12:27

-In North Wales,

-the tradition was stronger...

0:12:280:12:30

-..in Montgomeryshire,

-Denbighshire and Merionethshire.

0:12:310:12:36

-The words are very interesting.

0:12:370:12:39

-Originally, you had rhyming words

-and you had consonance...

0:12:390:12:44

-..very much like the cywyddau.

0:12:450:12:47

-That tradition belongs

-to olden times.

0:12:480:12:51

-From the 19th century onwards,

-the consonance disappeared...

0:12:510:12:55

-..and plygain songs

-showed more similarities to hymns.

0:12:550:12:59

-What are Bechgyn Bro Taf

-singing tonight?

0:12:590:13:02
