Ref. DD-LE Records of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod 1 DENBIGHSHIRE RECORD OFFICE Ref. DD-LE Records of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod 1894-2011 Extent 63 Boxes Description The company records of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod, a musical festival for international choirs and dance groups held since 1947, for a week annually in July, in Llangollen, North Wales. The collection includes the records of the Friends of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod, which was set up to support the festival, and the papers of W. S. Gwynn Williams, who was instrumental in founding the festival and was the Hon. Music Director of the Eisteddfod, 1947-1977. It also includes records about the festival collected externally, most by local people whose support of the Eisteddfod - as committee members, volunteers or customers - has been important to its survival. The competitors are well represented in the collection, predominantly in the promotional series in photographs, audio and visual recordings, press cuttings and publicity material. Creator: LRW Date: 24/06/2009 2 DENBIGHSHIRE RECORD OFFICE Administrative History The first Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod, held in 1947, was the concept of Harold Tudor of Coedpoeth, then a member of the British Council; the concept being the creation of a festival 'to promote education, international peace and goodwill through the medium of the fine arts and in particular the art of music'.(1) After the idea for such a festival was turned down by the Welsh National Eisteddfod, Harold Tudor approached W. S. Gwynn Williams, a noted Welsh composer and music publisher, to suggest an independent festival based in Llangollen. With the help of George Northing, a teacher from Dinas Brân County School and Chairman of the local council, the idea gained the support of town residents and in 1946, organising of the festival began. An Executive Committee was formed comprising the chairmen and secretaries of five committees: Finance, Grounds, Hospitality, Music and Publicity. The first festival was financed through a public appeal, and, with the aid of the British Council, international choirs were approached to compete. The festival was a success. Forty overseas groups arrived, including a dance group from Spain, who proved so popular that a dance competition became a feature of the subsequent Eisteddfods. 'After the second year it became necessary to expand the organisation beyond the scope of the original Committee, so a new constitution was framed. The governing body was called the General Council, to which all people living in and around Llangollen were invited to apply for membership. No subscription was required, the only qualification asked was that the member was interested in the aims and ideals of the International Eisteddfod and prepared to co-operate in the work'.(2) The Eisteddfod since then has been operated as such: 'the General Council elects twenty-one members to form a Standing Board, each member to act for a period of three years. The Standing Board [chaired by the Eisteddfod Chairman] is to maintain continuity of the Eisteddfod from year to year and has power to prepare and deal with the affairs of future Eisteddfodau, as well as appoint officials [including the President] and nuclei of sub-committees each year. The affairs of each current year are conducted by a small Executive Committee consisting of the officials of the Council and Chairman and Secretaries of the sub- committees.'(2) The Executive Committee is chaired by the Eisteddfod Vice- Chairman. To the original five committees were added the Tickets and Floral committees and sub-commitees as necessary, including, between 1972 and 1988, a Philatelic Commitee. Committee members are aided by numerous volunteers. On 2nd April 1974, the organisation became a Company limited by guarantee called The Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod Limited. Thereafter, if the Company went into liquidation its members were only liable to £1. Key events in the Eisteddfod history include: Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh becoming patrons in 1948; the Eisteddfod being selected by The Festival of Britain as one of the Arts Festival Centres in 1951; UNESCO commissioning records of the Eisteddfod for circulation in all countries in 1951 (the Llangollen Eisteddfod was the only festival this was done for); royal visits, including Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh in 1953 and 1992, Princess Margaret and the Earl of Snowdon in 1964, Princess Anne in 1977, and Prince Charles and Princess Creator: LRW Date: 24/06/2009 3 DENBIGHSHIRE RECORD OFFICE Diana in 1985; the Orbernkirchen choir singing 'Happy Wanderer' in 1953, which became the most popular song in the country; the new larger site being acquired at Penddol in 1958 (the Standing Board purchased 24 acres of land as a permanent site for the Eisteddfod); and the Pavilion development in 1992. The Eisteddfod has also had many notable guest artists, not least Pavarotti who performed at the Eisteddfod in 1955 and 1995; and many notable Presidents, including W. Clayton Russon, Ernest Bevin, Sir Henry Morris-Jones and Sir Anthony Eden, to name the first four. The Friends of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod was started in 1974 by Michael Fay and other members of the Publicity Committee to support the Eisteddfod. In 1988 a London branch was established by Sir Maldwyn Thomas to promote the Eisteddfod in the London area and to arrange events for FLIME members in the home counties.(3) The Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod is still staged at present.

My spouse Debbie is from the Isle of Wight and we have been married for over thirty years. Debbie is a faithful member of the ‘Mothers Union’ and will be attending the General Conference in Portsmouth this year. Our two sons live and work in Bristol and our daughter lives with us and has recently been working with people with special needs. I was born in Llanddewi Brefi and began my ministry at the age of 23. I spent part of my ministry in the diocese of Bangor where I was ordained, but for the past seventeen years have ministered in this diocese, in the parish of Newcastle Emlyn. As a couple we enjoy the countryside and look forward to living near the Botanic Gardens. In my experience, walking amidst the natural melodies of the countryside and its sweet aromas is a great help to unwind and to reflective meditation; as is listening to classical music. I derive special inspiration from listening to the religious and classical music of Arvo Pärt. Last year I had the privilege of being ‘Director of Ordinands’ for the diocese. Undertaking this role has opened up a new perspective for me on ministry within the diocese and it is inspiring to be involved in supporting and encouraging new candidates for ministry.

After presenting her mandate to the Dean, The Very Revd Jonathan Lean, and swearing the oath, she was led into the Quire and taken to the Bishop’s stall, the Cathedra. “God, whose grace has called you to this office, be your aid and endow you with judgement, knowledge, purity, lowliness and patience.” She was then presented to the congregation in the nave to rapturous applause. After the service, outside the west door, more applause followed and many hugs, greetings and blessings; and children from local schools presented the Bishop with mementos and flowers. Altogether a joyous celebration of an historic day. More pictures can be found to view or download on the diocesan website: http://stdavids. churchinwales.org.uk/ bishop-joannas-enthronement There is also a video of Bishop Joanna’s address, which can be found at: http://stdavids.churchinwales. org.uk/bishopjoanna Tir Dewi: ready with a listening ear, a helping hand T’S taken a while, but Tir Dewi ified – or can be trained – to answer Now 55, he describes his That home was found when Iis ready for full lift-off the calls. journey thus far as “eclectic”.
