The festival, which is supported by the Welsh Government, includes a star\-studded line up of Irish musicians and speakers who will travel to locations throughout Mid Wales, including the historic Gregynog Hall near Newtown, for events between 16 and 26 June.


This year’s line\-up has a strong focus on folk as well as classical music and sees Jordi Savall and Hespèrion XXI with Martin Hayes, Mahan Esfahani, The Irish Consort, Ailish Tynan and Iain Burnside, The Fidelio Trio, Chamber Choir Ireland, Daniel Grimwood, Ensemble Nevermind, Finghin Collins, The Goodman Trio and Aoife Ní Bhríain all strolling down Gregynog’s green carpet.


Also as part of the Festival, The official harpist to the Prince of Wales, Anne Denholm, is to bring a series of free “Irish Coffee” concerts to communities in Powys. She will be performing 3 free public events in Newtown, Montgomery and Brecon in Powys as part of this year’s Gregynog Festival which takes place between 16 and 26 June at venues throughout Mid Wales.


The programme, presented in partnership with Live Music Now and funded by Arts Council Wales and the Welsh Government, takes music into communities to highlight the benefits of music and to encourage people, young and old to get involved.


The Gregynog Festival is also supporting the Welsh Government’s programme, Cymru’n Cofio Wales Remembers 1914 – 1918 to commemorate the centenary of the arrival of Irish prisoners to Fron\-goch near Bala.


Cabinet Secretary for the Economy and Infrastructure, Ken Skates, said:



> "The Gregynog Festival is our oldest classical music festival which was launched by the pioneering Davies sisters – and I’m pleased to see it continuing to raise the profile of home\-grown and international talent and brining classical music alive to everyone in the area.



> “Ireland has been selected as one of Wales’ key overseas markets for our tourism industry and make a significant contribution to our economy. Around 134,000 visitors  per year come to Wales from Republic of Ireland and spend around £30 million. I wish the organisers and performers best wishes for a successful 2016 event.”


This year’s festival is also a special occasion for Artistic Director, Dr Rhian Davies, who celebrates 10 years as curator. She said:



> “This is a very special year for me as it marks a decade since I took over the mantle of the Gregynog Festival, a festival that has always been close to my heart as someone who was born and brought up in Newtown and attended the concerts as a child”


said Dr Davies.



> “The past decade has seen us continue to develop and grow the festival, inviting the finest international musicians of our time to make Wales and UK debuts so that we can all enjoy music\-making of the highest quality right here in Mid Wales’ most beautiful locations.”

Mae’r ŵyl, sy’n derbyn cefnogaeth gan Lywodraeth Cymru, yn cynnwys sawl cerddor a siaradwr amlwg o’r Iwerddon, fydd yn teithio i leoliadau ledled y Canolbarth, gan gynnwys Neuadd Gregynog ger Y Drenewydd, am ddigwyddiadau rhwng 16 a 26 Mehefin.


Mae’r perfformwyr eleni yn canolbwyntio ar ganu gwerin yn ogystal â cherddoriaeth glasurol, gyda Jordi Savall a Hespèrion XXI a Martin Hayes, Mahan Esfahani, The Irish Consort, Ailish Tynan a Iain Burnside, The Fidelio Trio, Chamber Choir Ireland, Daniel Grimwood, Ensemble Nevermind, Finghin Collins, The Goodman Trio and Aoife Ní Bhríain, pob un ohonynt yn cerdded i lawr carped gwyrdd Gregynog.


Hefyd fel rhan o’r Ŵyl, bydd telynores swyddogol Tywysog Cymru, Anne Denholm, yn dod â chyfres o gyngherddau “Coffi Gwyddelig” i gymunedau ym Mhowys.  Bydd yn perfformio mewn tri digwyddiad cyhoeddus yn Y Drenewydd, Sir Drefaldwyn ac Aberhonddu ym Mhowys, fel rhan o Ŵyl Gregynog eleni, fydd yn cael ei chynnal rhwng 16 a 26 Mehefin mewn lleoliadau ledled y Canolbarth.


Mae’r rhaglen, sy’n cael ei chyflwyno mewn partneriaeth â Live Music Now a’i hariannu gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru a Llywodraeth Cymru, yn mynd â cherddoriaeth i gymunedau i dynnu sylw at fanteision cerddoriaeth ac i annog pobl, yn ifanc a hŷn, i fod yn rhan o bethau.  


Mae Gŵyl Gregynog hefyd yn cefnogi rhaglen Llywodraeth Cymru, Cymru’n Cofio Wales Remembers 1914 – 1918 i goffáu canmlwyddiant carcharorion o’r Iwerddon yn cyrraedd Fron\-goch ger y Bala.


Meddai Ken Skates, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi a Seilwaith:



> “Gŵyl Gregynog yw un o’n gwyliau cerddoriaeth glasurol hynaf, a chafodd ei lansio gan y chwiorydd Davies – ac rwy’n falch o weld ei fod yn parhau i dynnu sylw at ddoniau lleol a rhyngwladol, gan ddod â cherddoriaeth glasurol yn fyw i bawb yn yr ardal.
> 
> 
> “Cafodd Iwerddon ei dewis fel un o farchnadeodd tramor pwysicaf Cymru ar gyfer ein diwydiant twristiaeth, ac mae’n gwneud cyfraniad sylweddol i’n heconomi.  Daw oddeutu 134,000 o ymwelwyr y flwyddyn i Gymru o Weriniaeth Iwerddon i wario oddeutu £30 miliwn. Rwy’n dymuno’n dda i’r trefnwyr a’r perfformwyr am ddigwyddiad llwyddiannus yn 2016\.”


Mae gŵyl eleni hefyd yn ddigwyddiad arbennig i’r Cyfarwyddwr Artistig, Dr Rhian Davies, sy’n dathlu 10 mlynedd fel curadur.  Meddai:



> “Mae hon yn flwyddyn arbennig iawn i mi gan bod degawd wedi mynd heibio ers imi fod yn gyfrifol am Ŵyl Gregynog, gŵyl sydd wedi bod yn agos at fy nghalon erioed, fel rhywun sydd wedi ei geni a’i magu yn Y Drenewydd ac wedi bod mewn cyngherddau yno pan yn blentyn.”


meddai Dr Davies.



> “Dros y ddeng mlynedd ddiwethaf, rydym wedi parhau i ddatblygu yr ŵyl, gan wahodd y cerddorion rhyngwladol gorau un i ganu am y tro cyntaf erioed, fel y gallwn i gyd fwynhau cerddoriaeth o’r safon uchaf yma yn un o leoliadau hyfrytaf y Canolbarth.”
