The Victory of St. Garmon
For Baritone Solo, Chorus, and Orchestra by Harry Evans
Soloist, Owen Bryngwyn
Conducted by W.J. Watkins

This battle, which is still known as the 'Alleluia' battle, is supposed to have been fought in the fifth century near Mold, in North Wales, between the Picts, who had invaded the country, and the native army, which had just embraced Christianity, led by Garmon. It was Easter week, and the River Alun was in flood.
There is a monument at 'Maesgarmon' to mark the spot.
