Welsh and Cornish are both beautiful and virtually indistinguishable, as Cornwall basically means “Horn of Whales,” as I’m sure you know. I thought it was offensive some English guy said Welsh people sounded as if they were coughing when they spoke, as if English were much better.

I met this beautiful lady, and miss her sweet voice very much. she used to perform funny songs too, and had a large trunk on stage with different hats and props in it. I remember her bringing me to tears with a song called ballena, which was about the demise of the whales.

What a beautiful voice - I saw her live in Cornwall she reduced me to tears of laughter with her jokes and anecdotes in between songs - then to tears with a song called "I'm troubled" Such a warm personality exuded from her. I'm still searching for another copy of "Pipers Folk" - someone stole mine by borrowing and disappearing with it.

The pronunciation and accent she is singing in sounds very similar to Welsh, I wonder where, or indeed if, Brenda learned Cornish. Did she learn it as a first language or a second language, or just learn the words to the song? When I listen to today's Cornish speakers they sound very "West Country" when they speak Cornish, this performance is quite different. Absolutely lovely performance and very beautifully sung, what a wonderful singer.
