Title
Blodau'r Drain / Caerdroea
Date
29 Mar 2026
Two lovely Welsh tunes that we've known for years but I couldn't make work on melodeon in any key, so finally put together a cello arrangement. Blodau'r Drain - Flower of the Thorn (probably Blackthorn) Caerdroea - usually translated as "Troy" i.e. the city of Troy, but it also means labyrinth, and there is a labyrinth on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall called Kerdroya which is the Cornish version of the same word (and which we visited in June 2026.)
