Cildraeth Sienco is an improvisation based on an amalgamation of the notation and structure of Angharad Jenkins’ Brandy Cove with the alternative string tuning of ‘Cywair yn Nghywair y Wrach’ from Robert ap Huw’s manuscript.

"Ceimion wrachïod cymwys
Yn siarad bob teimlad twys"

"Precise, angled brays
Speaking every profound feeling."

From a cywydd requesting a harp by Huw Machno fl. 1560-1637
