The Music Room<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

2025-2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to The Music Room<\/em>, a series of Monthly Chamber Music Concerts presented by Ensemble Cymru in collaboration with Gregynog Hall and St. Mary\u2019s Church, Conwy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each concert lasts around 45-50 minutes and takes place twice over a weekend, at 11.00am on Saturday in Gregynog Hall\u2019s historic music room in beautiful Mid Wales, and at 4.00pm on Sunday at St. Mary\u2019s Church, Conwy. The series is inspired by Gwendoline and Margaret Davies and forms a musical backdrop to their extraordinary lives and the creative world which they inhabited and supported.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The distinctive programming of The Music Room Series focuses on British and French chamber music from around the 1890s to the 1930s. British composers include Frank Bridge, Edward Elgar, Arnold Bax, Rebecca Clarke and Ralph Vaughan Williams. French composers include Gabriel Faure, Lili and Nadia Boulanger, Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Each programme features between 2 and 3 performers with works chosen to highlight Ensemble Cymru\u2019s eclectic range of classical musicians, playing in differing and sometimes unusual combinations to bring audiences a joyful, entertaining and meaningful selection of great music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Davies Sisters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gwendoline (1882 to 1951) and Margaret (1884 to 1963) Davies were sisters, philanthropists and patrons of the arts who inherited a fortune from their industrialist grandfather. Margaret\u2019s passion was art, Gwendoline\u2019s passion was music and their lives during the early decades of the c20th were closely linked to both Britain and France. They travelled widely, built up a vast collection of paintings and served with the Red Cross in France during the First World War. After the war they bought Gregynog Hall where they established a centre for the creative arts and a music festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
