Cardiff Castle

Directed by Bella Janson

A whirlwind journey through the history of Cardiff Castle in music and pictures in seven minutes. The score features the dazzling brilliance of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and the thrilling sound of the 100 voice Morriston Orpheus Male Voice Choir. The Soprano soloist is Iona Jones.

David's music sets the medieval poetry of Taliesin and the 19th century lyric poetry of John Ceirog Hughes.

The film is installed in a purpose built cinema at the castle and is projected on a massive 16m screen.
