Celebrate 100 years since the first radio broadcast in Wales with Wynne Evans and 麻豆官网首页入口 NOW
In February 1923, the very first 麻豆官网首页入口 Wales radio broadcast was made from a tiny studio above a shop in Castle Street, Cardiff.
Mostyn Thomas, a well-known Welsh operatic baritone at the time, stepped forward and sang into the microphones dangling from the ceiling - his rendition of Dafydd y Garreg Wen marking the first Welsh words ever heard on British radio.
Scroll forward a century, and you can join Wynne Evans, Kizzy Crawford, Samantha Price and the 麻豆官网首页入口 National Orchestra of Wales to celebrate this piece of broadcasting history.
Featuring a selection of nostalgic Welsh music to warm the heart, join us at 麻豆官网首页入口 Hoddinott Hall on Sunday 5 February, 3pm, for this exciting concert marking this momentous occasion in Wales.
