🎻🎺 What a fantastic day of music! 🎶

This week we held our annual Caerphilly Music Service Beginners’ Ensemble Course, giving young learners who have never played in an ensemble before the opportunity to experience the fun and excitement of making music together.

We were delighted to welcome 35 string, woodwind and brass players from 15 Caerphilly schools.

After a wonderful day of rehearsing and ensemble playing, our young musicians finished with a lovely concert for parents and carers, showcasing what they had achieved in just one day. 👏

We hope the experience has inspired them to continue their musical journey and join us at our regular Thursday Night County Ensembles.

Well done, everyone! 🎵

🎻🎺 Am ddiwrnod gwych o gerddoriaeth! 🎶

Yr wythnos hon cynhaliwyd ein Cwrs Ensemble Dechreuwyr blynyddol Gwasanaeth Cerdd Caerffili, gan roi cyfle i ddysgwyr ifanc nad ydynt erioed wedi chwarae mewn ensemble o’r blaen i brofi hwyl a chyffro gwneud cerddoriaeth gyda’i gilydd.

Roedd yn bleser croesawu 35 o chwaraewyr llinynnol, chwythbrennau a phres o 15 o ysgolion yng Nghaerffili.

Ar ôl diwrnod gwych o ymarfer a chwarae ensemble, daeth ein cerddorion ifanc â’r diwrnod i ben gyda chyngerdd hyfryd i rieni a gofalwyr, gan arddangos yr hyn yr oeddent wedi’i gyflawni mewn dim ond un diwrnod. 👏

Gobeithiwn fod y profiad wedi eu hysbrydoli i barhau â’u taith gerddorol ac i ymuno â ni yn ein Ensembles Sirol nos Iau rheolaidd.

Da iawn bawb! 🎵
