| Wales is a part of the United Kingdom, but
a culturally distinct Celtic country. Its traditional music
is related to the Celtic music of countries such as Ireland
and Scotland. Welsh folk music has distinctive instrumentation
and song types, and is often heard at a twmpath (folk dance
session), gwyl werin (folk festival) or noson lawen (traditional
party or ceilidh). Modern Welsh folk musicians have sometimes
had to reconstruct traditions which had been suppressed or forgotten,
as well as compete with imported and indigenous rock and pop
trends. The record label Fflach Tradd has become especially
influential. There is also a thriving modern musical scene which
spans several genres and two languages. |
