Rydym yn falch o gyhoeddi bod David Bolitho, Freddie Hodgkinson, Chloe Lovell and Małgola, No wedi cael eu dewis i gymryd rhan yn CoDI Curiad.
Mae'r llwybr datblygu artistiaid hwn yn cynnig cyfle i bum crëwr cerddoriaeth o Gymru archwilio a datblygu dulliau creadigol o gyfansoddi ar gyfer y llais ac offerynnau taro (gyda thraw a di-draw), trwy gyfres o weithdai gyda'r gantores Emily Thorner, yr offerynnwr taro Julian Warburton, a'r cyfansoddwr-mentor Claire Victoria Roberts.
Trwy sesiynau stiwdio, mentora a chydweithio â'r perfformwyr, bydd yr artistiaid a ddewiswyd yn archwilio dulliau arbrofol o gyfansoddi, gan greu gwaith newydd uchelgeisiol sy'n adlewyrchu ac yn ehangu ar eu hiaith gerddorol a'u hymarfer creadigol eu hunain.
We’re pleased to announce that David Bolitho, Freddie Hodgkinson, Chloe Lovell and Małgola, No have been selected to participate in CoDi Pulse.
This artist development pathway offers five Wales-based music-creators the opportunity to explore and develop creative approaches to composing for voice and percussion (a combination of tuned and untuned instruments), through a series of workshops with vocalist Emily Thorner, percussionist Julian Warburton, and composer-mentor Claire Victoria Roberts.
Through studio sessions, mentoring, and collaboration with the performers, the selected artists will explore experimental approaches to composing for, creating ambitious new work that reflects and expands on their own musical language and creative practice.
David Bolitho
Mae David Bolitho yn artist rhyngddisgyblaethol sy'n gweithio gyda symudiad, sain a choreograffi mewn theatr ddawns, gosodwaith cyhoeddus safle-benodol a gweithdrefnol-ôl-ddynol-ymarfer. Maen nhw'n hoff o eiriau hir a bod yn ffraeth. Mae eu harchwiliad o’r theatr a'u perfformiad ehangach wedi datblygu dros ddau ddegawd a mwy fel cerddor. Mae cerddoriaeth a chyfansoddi bob amser wedi bod wrth wraidd eu hymarfer fel artist annibynnol neu pan yn gweithio ar y cyd fel aelod o gydweithfa celfyddydau amlieithog Cymreig ‘Cyfunol’ ac yn rhyngwladol fel perfformiwr gyda Studio Kokyu, sydd yn rhan o’r fyd-enwog Sefydliad Grotowski. Ochr yn ochr â hyn maent yn trefnu cyfnewidfeydd a labordai rhyngwladol fel un o sylfaenwyr Rhwydwaith Ymarfer Cabane, gan gynnig gweithdai, perfformiadau a chyfrannu at gynadleddau academaidd a chyfnodolion fel ymchwilydd perfformiad. Mae hyn i gyd yn ymdrech i ddarganfod beth yn union sy'n digwydd yn y byd yma. Hyd yn hyn does dim atebion wedi dod i’r amlwg, ond maen nhw'n eithaf siŵr y bydd y cyfan yn dod yn glir gyda dim ond un prosiect, erthygl academaidd neu gomisiwn arall.
David Bolitho is an interdisciplinary artist working with movement, sound, and choreography in dance theatre, site-specific public installation and procedural-post-human-praxis. They like long words and being glib. Their w(o/a)nderings into theatre and expanded performance are built on over two decades as a musician. Musicality and composition have always been at the core of their practice as an independent artist or collaboratively as member of Cymreig interlingual arts collective Cyfunol and internationally as a performer with Studio Kokyu, resident at the world-renowned Grotowski Institute. Alongside this they organise international exchanges and laboratories as a founding member of Cabane Practising Network, offering workshops, performances and contributing to academic conferences and journals as a performance researcher. All this in an effort to find out what exactly is going on after all. So far no answers have been found, but they're pretty sure that with just one more project, academic article or commission they'll have it all figured out.

Freddie Hodgkinson
Mae Freddie Hodgkinson yn ddrymiwr a chyfansoddwr o Gaerlŷr sy'n byw ac yn astudio yng Nghaerdydd ar hyn o bryd. Mae'n arbenigo mewn datblygu ymagwedd unigryw ac anghonfensiynol at y cit drymiau, gan gyfuno technegau anarferol – trin samplau, defnyddio synths modiwlaidd a phrosesu, gan ddefnyddio tâp – gyda'i astudiaethau clasurol mewn cyfansoddi a'i gefndir mewn jazz. Mae hefyd yn cael ei ddylanwadu gan ei gariad a'i gysylltiad â thraddodiadau cerddoriaeth gwerin Iwerddon, a ysbrydolwyd gan ei deulu, sydd wedi ei arwain i archwilio seinweddau sonig cyfoethog a sut y gallent ddod at ei gilydd. Mae Freddie wedi archwilio llawer o'r syniadau hyn yn drymio ar gyfer y band gwerin arbrofol Spirited Followers, ochr yn ochr â phrosiectau amrywiol eraill. Mae ei waith yn cyfuno elfennau o syniadau cyfansoddi confensiynol, gan archwilio electronig, amgylchynol, jazz a gwerin, a sut mae'r gwahanol feysydd hyn o gerddoriaeth yn rhyngweithio â'i gilydd.
Freddie Hodgkinson is a drummer and composer from Leicester currently residing and studying in Cardiff. He specialises in developing a unique and unconventional approach to the drum kit, combining unusual techniques – manipulating samples, using modular synths and processing, using tape – with his classical studies in composition and his background in jazz. He is also influenced by his love and connection to the Irish folk tradition, inspired by his family, which has led him to explore rich sonic soundscapes and how they can come together. Freddie has explored many of these ideas drumming for experimental Folk band Spirited Followers, alongside various other projects. His work fuses elements of conventional compositional ideas, exploring electronic, ambient, jazz, and folk, and how these differing areas of music interact with each other.
