We are circulating a petition calling on the government to recognise the Cornish as a National minority. It has been created by a Cornish person who is not a member of any political party or organisation but who is very concerned at what is happening in Cornwall. Please sign it and pass it on to your friends. We want to protect what there is left before all is lost !:

There will be a new Brenda Cd available later in the year from a previously unheard Paris concert; check out the living in cornwall website for details.
ruskin1900 Amazing news for all you Brenda Wootton fans. Previously unheard professional recordings of the complete Paris concert. Sample tracks can only be heard at the livingincornwall website.
I've just listened to them, what a find! lets hope they can be released in some way. It's been a long time coming, Brenda was a great singer and took the culture of Cornwall around the globe.
Chris Newman is a guitar legend! I met him several times when my parents ran folk clubs in Swindon. I was fascinated by his playing. As for Brenda - she IS the face of Cornish music. I love her songs. My dad was a huge fan & friend & he passed on all his old LP's. I only wish I had been able to meet her & see her live. What a star!!!
This first part sounds like a Piece by Turlough O'Carolan. I claim Perjury on whoever thinks that this is a cornwall song. The second Part may be Cornish however. but still, Credit where Credit is Due.
Absolutely, the first part is O'Carolan's Concerto. John Renbourn also does a great version of this. But this version is very beautiful, especially followed by Brenda Wooten voice - sublime!
i had the pleasure of being at a concert by Brenda and chatting to her afterwards, she signed a LP i won. sadly i dont have today. i think it was in the 70s at the marymass folk festival. Ray
Beautiful delivery! Very relaxing tune, as well...

This is my favorite rendition of O'Carolan's Concerto. Chris Newman is an outstanding player.

Beautiful. 7 generations abroad can't break the connection Cornish music has with its descendents.

What a find.
Somebody out there has to do a contemporary version of this song. It has so much potential.
