Notes

The title comes from the Welsh custom of singing improvised verses on a given theme to a melody either well-known or taught by the harper. Here the original folk-like theme is stated at the beginning and end and there are seven variations in between. Penillon was originally composed for violin and harp. This version was created by the composer in April 2006.
