Tune book,

Two tune books, written at the beginning of the nineteenth century, now bound as one volume. The first part (ff. 1-23 recto) contains hymn-tunes and Welsh traditional tunes, including 'Can y Proffwyd Davydd' ('cafwyd y Don ar geiriau oddiwrth y Doctor Pugh', f. 16 verso). The second part of the manuscript (ff. 23 verso-45) contains Welsh and English traditional tunes and marches.

Musical papers,

Six bifolia, one watermarked 1799 (ff. 7-8), containing school exercises and traditional tunes written during the first half of the nineteenth century and bearing the names of Thomas Richards (f.1), Lewis Richards (f. 2), the Reverend David Richards (f. 4), John Lloyd (f. 7), and Mair Richards (f. 8). Two further loose folios, also first half of the nineteenth century, contain the tunes 'Sims March' (f. 13) and 'Agatha' (f. 14), the latter with accompanying words in English. Eleven cyclostyled folios of Welsh folk-tunes, 1919-1925, found with the above, are now kept separately as Cwrtmawr Music MS 50 ii.
