Bragod's extraordinary tonal world reveals the very roots of music. Using original instruments and sources this unique duo explores Welsh medieval, ceremonial music and poetry with experiment and imagination.
Robert Evans plays the European lyre and its descendant the crwth. Mary-Anne Roberts sings audaciously while dancing the binary patterns of this mystical music: the universe made audible.
They give acoustic recitals internationally, play ritual music for their local community and have answered commissions to set modern poems. Since releasing the first crwth CD in 2001 they have featured in BBC Radio 3 broadcasts and on BBC and NHK (Japan) television.
