Welsh Mountain Cider | Traditional music session | Princess Royal, Young Collins, Shepherd's Hey

Описание: On Saturday 6 August we went along to the Cider Shed session at Welsh Mountain Cider high in the hills not far from Llanidloes in Mid Wales.

Bill and Chava open their Cider Shed to visitors between 2 - 5pm every 1st and 3rd Saturday from April to October. It's a perfect opportunity to sample their range of ciders made from 100% fresh juice, naturally fermented and aged. And also to listen to some wonderful traditional tunes from the musicians there on the day!

You can also book a place on a tour of the highest cider orchard in the country - the views across the Cambrian Mountains and down into the Severn Valley are just stunning - and there are over 450 varieties of cider, cooking and dessert apple, plus some pear trees, thriving at 1115 feet above sea level which is amazing in itself.

The musicians played three traditional Morris dance tunes for this set. Bill on mandolin, Chava on melodeon, Cornelius on cittern, & Graham on anglo concertina.

Tunes

1. The Princess Royal
2. Young Collins
3. Shepherd's Hey
