Influential musical improviser and harp player Rhodri Davies made his own version of
an old, long forgotten instrument to create his new album Telyn Rawn. He strung it
with pleated horse hair and improvised all of the music. The album was inspired by
poetry, the work of Elizabethan harpist Robert ap Huw and the importance of horses
in Welsh history.

‘Wound Response’ by Welsh harpist Rhodri Davies was originally released in 2012.
This is an LP of overdriven, frantic harp playing. Using an acoustic lap harp,
microphone, a distortion pedal, a volume pedal and two amplifiers, Davies creates
an LP of noisy and frenetic arpeggios. It is inspired by the Russian artist Kazimir
Malevich whose suprematist manifesto centred around "the supremacy of pure artistic
feeling".

his collaborator from avant-garde folk ‘supergroup’ Hen Ogledd.
