Thanks to Karen Marshalsay, this morning I managed to read some of the Robert ap Huw MS for the first time. I hadn’t realised he played the harp at the court of James VI/I - which means that Robert ap Huw, Tobias Hume, and Robert Fludd may well have met. And what a meeting of Welsh, Scottish and English musical eccentrics that would have been.
Here’s a video of Bill Taylor playing Gosteg Dafydd Athro, the first piece in the MS.
