Wonderful stuff! I love Lampeter, thoroughly enjoyed my time there, meeting my future wife and best friend there. I recall taking this walk in deep snow during the winter of 90/91. On another occasion, a friend spotted a 'willo-the-wisp' in the woods seen at 1:25. A truly magical place - thanks for taking the time to put this together!
thanks. i grew up in cellan and that was like a flashback! the small hillock with the copse on top of it was known as magic mountain when i lived there, not sure if that was due to mushrooms or ley lines, or just hippies! what a pretty area :)
Thank you. This took me straight back to the early 70s when I used to gaze out of the lecture room windows at Llettytwppa wood during philosophy lectures. The route seems exactly as I remember it, though I expect the trees are stouter now.

The hill is still known as magic mountain by the students. Not sure about mushrooms, but the rumour is well known.

My guess is Arlene Auger (TDK 1982)....if you do a search, one clue is that it's an unusual translation

I believe the soprano is Auger.
I can't tell you for certain as the music is on my computer in Lampeter [at which I'm not currently present].
Conducted by Simon Rattle.
