Do you have the talent of writing a song capable of winning S4C’s annual song-writing competition, Cân i Gymru 2011 (Song for Wales)? Are you looking for the opportunity to compose and show off your talent with a place in the live grand final at stake? Will your song be crowned the winner and chosen to represent Wales at next year’s Pan Celtic Festival?
Today (Monday 8 November), S4C is inviting composers from across Wales and beyond to enter its 2010 Cân i Gymru song writing competition, which offers a place at the Pan Celtic Festival, as well as a cash prize.
The closing date for entries is 7 January 2011 and the shortlist of eight songs chosen by a panel of experts will be performed live on S4C from the Pontrhydfendigaid Pavilion on 6 March 2011.
Musician Alun Tan Lan was last year’s winner with the song ‘Bws i’r Lleuad’ (Bus to the Moon). Tomos Wyn, who has recently joined S4C’s teen drama series Rownd a Rownd, performed the winning song.
The Cân i Gymru competition is produced for S4C by Avanti. For further information on the competition, please contact Avanti on 01443 688530 or [email protected].
