Côr y Dreigiau

Yn ystod haf 2006, aeth galwad i gefnogwyr ein 4 rhanbarth rygbi. A allech chi ganu i gefnogi eich rhanbarth? Atebodd dros 80 o bobl yr alwad ar gyfer Dreigiau Casnewydd Gwent, ar gyfer y sioe realiti S4C newydd Codi Canu.
O dan arweiniad y côr feistri Cefin a Rhian Roberts a Tim Rhys-Evans, ymarferodd Côr y Dreigiau am fisoedd yn y gobaith o ennill y wobr gyntaf o ganu'r Anthem Genedlaethol yng nghystadleuaeth Cymru yn erbyn Lloegr yn Stadiwm y Mileniwm.
Am fisoedd bu'r cefnogwyr yn brwydro trwy rwystrau oedd yn eu hwynebu, dysgodd nifer o aelodau'r côr sgiliau newydd ac eraill yn ail ddarganfod hen sgiliau nad oeddent wedi'u defnyddio ers eu dyddiau ysgol.
Gyda'r ffordd hyfforddi unigryw a hwyliog yr arweinyddion, aeth Côr y Dreigiau i'r afael â phob her a ddaeth i'w llwybr. Ar 17 Mawrth, 2007, canodd Côr y Dreigiau nerth eu calonnau ar gyfer eu rhanbarth, gan ennill y gystadleuaeth a chanu ein hanthem genedlaethol gyda balchder o flaen torf o dros 70,000 o bobl. Edrychwn ymlaen at eu clywed ar ddydd Sadwrn!

​In the summer of 2006, a call went out for supporters of our 4 regions of rugby. Could you sing in support for your region? Over 80 people answered the call for Newport Gwent Dragons, for the new S4C reality show Codi Canu.
Under the guidance of Choir Masters Cefin and Rhian Roberts and Tim Rhys-Evans the Dragons Choir rehearsed for months in the hope of winning the ultimate prize, to sing our National Anthem at the Wales vs England match at the Millennium Stadium.
For months the supporters battled through obstacles facing them, many choir members learning new skills and others dusting off old skills that hadn't been used since their school days.
With the unique and fun way the choir masters taught them, the Dragons choir tackled each and every challenge that came their way. On 17th March, 2007, Cor y Dreigiau sang their hearts out for their region, winning the competition and sang with pride our National Anthem in front of a capacity crowd of over 70,000 people. We look forward to hear them on Saturday!

Gwerinwyr Gwent
Mae Gwerinwyr Gwent yn dîm dawnsio gwerin Cymreig sy'n ceisio cadw diwylliant a thraddodiad cerddoriaeth a dawns Gymreig yn fyw. Ffurfiwyd y tîm ym 1976 gan wyth o bobl o ardal Gwent a oedd â diddordeb mewn dawnsio gwerin Cymreig. 

Yn ystod y blynyddoedd diwethaf maent wedi dawnsio yn yr Almaen, yr Eidal, Gwlad Belg, Denmarc a'r Ffindir, ac yn 2011 fe aeth rhai o'r tîm i ŵyl Ballydehob yng Ngorllewin Cork, ac i Latfia. Fe'u gwahoddwyd i berfformio yn yr ŵyl Lowanderperan yn Perranporth ym mis Hydref 2012 a mwynhaodd pawn hyn.

​Gwerinwyr Gwent is a Welsh folk dance team aiming to keep alive the culture and tradition of Welsh music and dance. The team was formed in 1976 by eight people from the Gwent area who were interested in Welsh folk dancing. The name of the team can be translated as “folk-people of Gwent”.
In recent years they have danced in Germany, Italy, Belgium, Denmark and Finland, and in 2011 some of the team went to the Ballydehob festival in West Cork, and to Latvia.  They were invited to perform at the Lowanderperan festival in Perranporth in October 2012 and enjoyed this.
