Mae aelodau c\u00f4r plant o Gaerdydd a enillodd yn yr Eisteddfod Gerddorol Ryngwladol Llangollen gyntaf erioed yn dal i fynd yn gryf wrth i\u2019r 70ain Eisteddfod agos\u00e1u.<\/p>\n

Yn \u00f4l yn 1947, enillodd y Snowflakes o Gaerdydd galonnau cynulleidfa yr \u0175yl gyntaf, a chael eu coroni yn bencampwyr c\u00f4r plant yr \u0175yl a mynd ymlaen i wneud sawl record a mynd ar deithiau canu.<\/p>\n

Yn dilyn ap\u00eal gan yr Eisteddfod yng Nghaerdydd canfyddwyd bod nifer o aelodau\u2019r c\u00f4r yn dal i gyfarfod – ac yn dal i ganu – bron i 70 mlynedd yn ddiweddarach.<\/p>\n

A hithau bellach yn 82 oed, mae\u2019r cyn-gantores Pauline Lang yn cofio\u2019r cyffro o berfformio yn yr Eisteddfod enwog, sydd ers y dyddiau cynnar hynny wedi rhoi llwyfan i gewri cerddorol fel Pavarotti, Lulu a Status Quo.<\/p>\n

Mae hi a\u2019i ffrind a\u2019i chyd-aelod o\u2019r c\u00f4r Lila Donovan yn dal i gadw mewn cysylltiad ac mae ganddynt atgofion melys o ddyddiau cynnar y digwyddiad eiconig.<\/p>\n

Dywedodd Pauline: \u201cRoedd yn brofiad gwych. Roeddwn ychydig yn nerfus, ond roedd pawb yn hyfryd ac roeddwn wrth fy modd yn mynd i fyny i Langollen.<\/p>\n

\u201cRoeddem yn y babell fawr ac roedd yn braf allan ar y maes yn cyfarfod \u00e2\u2019r holl berfformwyr eraill o bob cwr o\u2019r byd. Doedden ni ddim yn gallu sgwrsio \u00e2 nhw yn eu hiaith eu hunain ond roedd yn llawer o hwyl ac roedd yna lawer o ddawnsio gwerin a chanu caneuon byrfyfyr.<\/p>\n

\"Snowflakes

Snowflakes Caerdydd ar faes yr Eisteddfod yn cael eu harwain gan Eira Novello Williams.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cRwy\u2019n credu ei fod wedi helpu fod gennym dywydd da,\u201d ychwanegodd Pauline sy\u2019n byw yn y Tyllgoed, Caerdydd, gydag Arthur ei g\u0175r ers 60 mlynedd.<\/p>\n

Ffurfiwyd y Snowflakes yn 1926 gan Gwenllian Williams, a parhaodd y c\u00f4r wedyn dan arweiniad ei merched Eira Novello a Marion Williams.<\/p>\n

Ymunodd Pauline \u00e2\u2019r cantorion ar \u00f4l awgrym gan ei rhieni a gwnaeth ffrindiau yn syth gyda\u2019r merched eraill yn y c\u00f4r.<\/p>\n

Dywedodd: \u201cY tro cyntaf i mi gerdded i mewn mi wnes i gyfarfod \u00e2 rhywun roeddwn wedi bod yn yr ysgol fabanod gyda hi ac rydym yn dal i gadw mewn cysylltiad heddiw, felly mae\u2019n rhaid ein bod wedi bod yn ffrindiau am rywbeth fel 78 mlynedd.<\/p>\n

\u201cAethom yn \u00f4l i\u2019r Eisteddfod yn 1949 gan ennill bryd hynny hefyd ac ar \u00f4l hynny fe aethom ymlaen i wneud tair record gyda label Decca.<\/p>\n

\u201cRoeddem yn eithaf llwyddiannus ac roeddem yn arfer teithio a chystadlu ar hyd a lled y wlad yn ogystal \u00e2 mynd drosodd i Copenhagen am ychydig wythnosau i ganu.\u201d<\/p>\n

Er bod Pauline wedi gadael y c\u00f4r adeg geni’r cyntaf o\u2019i thri o blant, mi ddefnyddiodd sawl aelod eu profiad gyda\u2019r Snowflakes i lansio eu gyrfaoedd, gydag un cyn-Snowflake yn mynd mor bell \u00e2 Hollywood.<\/p>\n

Gadawodd Ira Stevens ei chartref yn Stryd Dogo, Caerdydd, yn 1936 a symud i Los Angeles fel actor cysgodol i Shirley Temple, gan ymddangos mewn nifer o ffilmiau cyn dychwelyd i Gymru yn 1939.<\/p>\n

\u201cRwy\u2019n dal i fwynhau cerddoriaeth,\u201d meddai Pauline, oedd yn gweithio fel teipydd ac sydd erbyn hyn yn nain i chwech o wyrion. \u201cOnd erbyn hyn mae gen i ofn fod fy llais yn rhy gryg i ganu.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fodd bynnag, nid yw ei chyd-aelod o\u2019r Snowflakes Lila Donovan, sydd hefyd o Gaerdydd, wedi rhoi\u2019r gorau i ganu fyth ers y cyfnod cynnar yna ar lwyfan yr Eisteddfod.<\/p>\n

\u201cCefais rai blynyddoedd gwych gyda\u2019r Snowflakes,\u201d meddai Lila: \u201cRoedd fy mam a nhad yn gerddorion gyda Byddin yr Iachawdwriaeth felly mi wnaethon nhw awgrymu bod fy chwaer a minnau yn ymuno \u00e2 ch\u00f4r hefyd.<\/p>\n

\u201cFedra i ddim diolch digon iddynt am hynny gan ei fod wedi arwain at gymaint o anturiaethau. Mi wnaethon ni deithio dros y lle, hyd yn oed i Ddenmarc, ac rwyf yn gwneud ffrindiau gwych yr wyf wedi cadw mewn cysylltiad \u00e2 nhw dros y blynyddoedd.<\/p>\n

\u201cFe wnes i fwynhau pob munud o\u2019r Eisteddfod ac rwy\u2019n credu ein bod wedi canu Dychweliad y Gwanwyn bryd hynny, er na allaf fod yn gwbl sicr o hynny, mae\u2019n anodd cofio\u2019r holl fanylion mae mor bell yn \u00f4l.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aeth Lila ymlaen i briodi a gweithio fel athrawes, er na chafodd blant ei hun. Erbyn hyn mae\u2019n wraig weddw ac yn dal i dreulio amser yn ei hysgol leol yn gwrando ar y rhai bach yn darllen yn ogystal \u00e2 pharhau gyda\u2019r hobi sydd wedi aros gyda hi trwy gydol ei bywyd – canu.<\/p>\n

\u201cRwy\u2019n aelod o gymdeithas operatig erbyn hyn ac yn dal i ganu llawer. Mae\u2019n fy nghadw yn eithaf prysur ac rwyf hefyd wrth fy modd yn camu ar y llwyfan. Pethau fel yna sy\u2019n eich cadw i fynd ac mae\u2019n debyg fy mod wedi bod yn canu ar hyd fy mywyd,\u201d ychwanegodd Lila.<\/p>\n

\"Aelodau

Aelodau c\u00f4r Snowflakes yn cyfarfod \u00e2 chystadleuydd o Sbaen yn un o’r Eisteddfodau cynnar, mae Marian Hughes ar y dde.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Un arall o\u2019r gyn-aelodau\u2019r Snowflakes, a ymunodd yn union ar \u00f4l y perfformiad enwog cyntaf yn yr Eisteddfod ond a oedd yno i godi\u2019r goron am yr ail dro yn 1949, oedd Marian Hughes.<\/p>\n

Mae Marian, sydd bellach yn wraig weddw 77 oed o\u2019r Eglwys Newydd, Caerdydd, yn cofio\u2019r gr\u0175p a\u2019i dyddiau canu, gan ddweud: \u201cMae gen i gymaint o atgofion hyfryd o\u2019r cyfnod yna. Ar \u00f4l y perfformiad yn 1949 roedd y byd i gyd wrth ein traed.<\/p>\n

\u201cMi wnaeth pethau dyfu yn sydyn ar \u00f4l hynny. Un funud byddem ar y llwyfan gyda Harry Secombe a\u2019r funud nesaf byddem yn recordio gyda gwasanaeth radio\u2019r BBC yng Nghymru, ac wrth gwrs roedd y daith i Ddenmarc yn rhywbeth cwbl unigryw yn y dyddiau hynny.<\/p>\n

\u201cRoeddem yn cynnal cyngherddau dros y lle i gyd – roedd yn eithaf anhygoel. Rwyf wedi bod yn canu fyth ers hynny ac rwyf i, ynghyd \u00e2 phump cyn-aelod arall o\u2019r Snowflakes, yn dal i fod yn rhan o g\u00f4r cymuned leol, felly rydym yn dal i ganu gyda\u2019n gilydd ar fore Sadwrn,\u201d ychwanegodd.<\/p>\n

Dywedodd Cyfarwyddwr Cerdd yr \u0175yl, Eilir Owen Griffiths, sy\u2019n byw yng Nghaerdydd: \u201cMae\u2019n wych bod gan y merched yma atgofion mor wych o Langollen a\u2019u bod yn gallu eu cofio mor glir.<\/p>\n

\"Lluniau

Lluniau C\u00f4r Snowflakes Caerdydd a anfonwyd atom gan y cyn-aelod Marian Hughes, o\u2019r Eglwys Newydd, Caerdydd.<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cByddem yn falch iawn o\u2019u croesawu nhw ac unrhyw aelodau eraill o\u2019r Snowflakes yn \u00f4l yma eto ac rwy\u2019n si\u0175r y byddent yn gweld bod y croeso mor gynnes ag erioed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Un o nifer o gorau Cymreig yn Eisteddfod gyntaf Llangollen oedd y Snowflakes\u00a0 ac roedd y corau eraill yn cynnwys Cymdeithas Gorawl Merched Penarth a Chymdeithas Gerdd Merched Canol y Rhondda a fu\u2019n cystadlu yn erbyn corau o ledled y DU, Gwlad Belg, Portiwgal, Yr Eidal, Sbaen, Sweden, y Swistir, Denmarc , yr Iseldiroedd a Hwngari<\/p>\n

Bydd Eisteddfod eleni, sy’n cychwyn ar ddydd Mawrth, 5 Gorffennaf, yn denu cystadleuwyr o hyd yn oed yn bellach i ffwrdd ac mae tocynnau ar gyfer y cyngherddau\u2019n mynd yn dda, yn enwedig ar gyfer y noson agoriadol pryd bydd y seren ddawnus Katherine Jenkins yn cychwyn y rhaglen trwy ganu Carmen gan Bizet.<\/p>\n

Dydd Mercher fydd Diwrnod Rhyngwladol y Plant a bydd yn cynnwys cystadlaethau corawl a dawns a hefyd cystadleuaeth newydd yr unawd dan 16 oed a bydd y cyngerdd gyda\u2019r nos yn rhoi llwyfan i Leisiau Theatr Gerdd a seren y West End Kerry Ellis a\u2019r banc bechgyn clasurol Collabro.<\/p>\n

Bydd y digymar Bryn Terfel yn serennu yng Nghyngerdd Gala y 70ain Eisteddfod ar y nos Iau gyda\u2019r tenor nodedig o Malta Joseph Calleja, tra bydd gweithgareddau dydd Iau yn cynnwys coroni C\u00f4r Plant y Byd.<\/p>\n

Bydd dydd Gwener yn dathlu Rhythmau\u2019r Byd ac yn wledd o gerddoriaeth a dawns gan y goreuon o gystadleuwyr rhyngwladol yr Eisteddfod gan gyrraedd uchafbwynt gyda chystadleuaeth Pencampwyr Dawns y Byd gyda\u2019r hwyr.<\/p>\n

Bydd y cyngerdd yn agor gyda Swae Carnifal y Carib\u00ee, yn cael ei ddilyn gan y neges Heddwch Ryngwladol yn cael ei thraddodi gan Theatr yr Ifanc, Rhosllannerchrugog.<\/p>\n

Mewn newid i\u2019r amserlen bydd y dydd Gwener hefyd yn gweld Gorymdaith y Cenhedloedd, dan arweiniad Llywydd yr Eisteddfod, Terry Waite a fydd yn symud o\u2019i ddydd Mawrth arferol oherwydd bod disgwyl torfeydd mwy a rhagor o gystadleuwyr i ddod i\u2019r Eisteddfod.<\/p>\n

Neilltuir dydd Sadwrn i\u2019r prif gorau a bydd yn cloi gyda chystadleuaeth C\u00f4r y Byd am Dlws Pavarotti, cyn i\u2019r Eisteddfod ymlacio\u2019n llwyr yn y Llanfest ar y dydd Sul cyn y cyngerdd terfynol cofiadwy.<\/p>\n
