Alawon Y Mynydd / Mountain Melodies

Inside the image.

The square cover places a snow-covered mountain across most of the image, beneath a clear blue sky. Its broad, pale slopes rise behind a low line of dark trees and fencing, while a snow-dusted field fills the foreground. A large tree stands at the left; smaller trees and brush are scattered along the foot of the mountain. Several thin fence posts cross the field horizontally, with a darker, leaning post near the centre. Brown grasses and patches of exposed earth interrupt the snow along the bottom edge. The mountain’s ridges and gullies create alternating bands of white, grey and blue shadow, including a long, deep blue shadow descending diagonally near the centre-right. The sky is brightest towards the horizon and deepens to a more saturated blue at the top.

The landscape appears photographic, with natural variations in snow, rock, vegetation and light. The mountain occupies the middle and upper portions of the cover; the foreground field, fence and trees provide a smaller, darker band beneath it. The image has no visible border. Text is overlaid in the sky and upper part of the mountain. Near the top, small dark lettering reading “CÔR MEIBION” sits above the much larger word “Talgarth”, set in white serif letters with a subtle dark edge or shadow. “MALE CHOIR” appears below in smaller, widely spaced blue capitals. Lower down, “ALAWON Y MYNYDD” is printed in dark bold capitals, followed by “MOUNTAIN MELODIES” in smaller blue capitals. These lines are centred and layered over the pale sky and mountain slope.
