Ymlaen A'r Gan / As Long As I Have Music

Inside the image.

A square cover combines a photograph of a coastal harbour with lettering placed over the sky and in a white band below. The photograph fills most of the upper portion and is cut off at the right edge. Along its left and lower edges, an irregular white border with a torn-paper appearance overlaps the image. The white area continues below the photograph, leaving space for the English title and choir name.

The landscape is viewed across a broad expanse of blue-grey water. In the lower part of the photograph, a narrow strip of harbourfront contains small boats, moorings, low buildings and a pier or quay. A small white structure with a red-topped feature stands near the right side of the harbour. Beyond the water, a long, low, dark-green shoreline runs across the image, with a pale strip of shore or beach in front of it. The upper half is mostly open sky, fading from a muted blue at the top to a lighter, hazier tone near the horizon. The light is soft and even, with no strong shadows. Small harbour details are visible but indistinct at this scale.

Three centred lines of blue lettering sit in the sky near the top: “Ymlaen â’r Gân” in a large, slanted serif style, followed by “CÔR MEIBION” and “PORTH TYWYN” in smaller uppercase serif letters. Below the photograph, “As Long as I Have Music” appears in blue, in a large slanted serif style. Under it, “BURRY PORT” and “MALE CHOIR” are set on two lines in black uppercase serif lettering. The photograph and text have a restrained palette of blues, grey, green, white and black. The ragged white edge gives the otherwise clean, centred design a cut-out or torn-page effect.
