Goodwick Brass Band, Christmas CarolsBand Pres Wdig, Carolau Nadolig

Goodwick Brass Band was originally formed in 1911. Sadly nearly a quarter of a century later despite surviving the war years, the band disbanded in around 1936. Fortunately - and fifty years on - the band was reformed in 1987 and has grown from strength to strength and have been crowned UK National Champions (1st Section) at the National Championships of Great Britain in Cheltenham (Sept 2015).

On this recording they have a wonderful collection of Christmas carols recorded at St. Peter's Church, Goodwick.

Ffurfiwyd Band Pres Wdig yn 1911 ond yn anffodus, chwarter canrif wedi hynny, chwalodd y band tua 1936, er llwyddo i oroesi blynyddoedd y rhyfel. Hanner canrif yn ddiweddarach, yn 1987, ail-ffurfiwyd y band ac maent yn mynd o nerth i nerth. Mis Medi 2015, dyrchafwyd hwy i adran y pencampwyr, a'u coroni'n Bencampwyr Prydain Fawr mewn Cystadleuaeth Cenedlaethol yn Cheltenham.

Ar y gryno-ddig hon, ceir casgliad bendigedig o garolau Nadolig a recordiwyd yn Eglwys Sant Pedr, Wdig.
