That I don't know, but I could check with harpist friends. He has a website for his group that features crwth and lyre. You might email him.

Hey, I moved to England back in 2000. It's not impossible. They even took my money and made me a citizen, so I possess dual citizenship. The UK government has made such immigration more difficult recently. However, I wasn't married to Raphe when I moved here, and he didn't bring me over on a fiance visa. I found a job at an international school and they provided me with my first visa. Now I work at a college teaching A-level English Language and Literature to the English. ;)

We'll definitely be back in Wales in September for Ffair Rhaglen IV, but we may get there over the summer holidays.
