Listen "Goosing Around / Gwyddio o Gwmpas"

Episode Synopsis

This is a tune I composed in January 2019 mainly on the cavaquinho. This recording was made in February 2019 on the guitar, cavaquinho, high and low whistles and the bodhrán.

The geese in the photo used to live by the sea in Bangor, and I nicknamed them Bertie and Gertie. Unfortunately one died, and the other hasn't been seen since. This tune is for them.

The word gwyddio is one I made up consisting of gŵydd (goose) and the verb suffix -io.
