THE ancient music of the bards will be reinvigorated and fused with a range of compositional styles near Abergele.

The exciting young Welsh guitarist and composer Chris Roberts will present a mesmerising performance of his debut album Adra at The Gwenfrewi Project in Gytherin on Saturday, September 21 at 7.30pm..

Throughout his studies at Cardiff University and Royal Birmingham Conservatoire he was awarded numerous awards and scholarships for both performance and pedagogy. Chris is also the founder and artistic director of the annual Cardiff Guitar Festival.

Roberts said: "Adra - 'Home" - is my debut album. It takes the ancient bardic music of Wales as a foundation, placing it alongside Welsh folk song, West African music, and contemporary classical composition."
