​
Tinc y Tannau is a duo formed in 2017 by Sianed Jones and Ailsa Mair Hughes, both singing and playing bass viola da gamba, most often at the same time!
​
They had their debut gig on 11th March 2017 immersed in the The Fifth Branch / Y Pumed Crainc illustration exhibition at Aberystwyth Arts Centre during the Aberystwyth Storytelling Festival.
​
The essence of their mission statement is simply 'Beauty and Mischief' and they perform a variety of live improvisations, original compositions and historical music for the viol (with a twist and even, potentially, a shout!).
Check out clips of our first ever gig here:
