Tune of the Day: Suo Gân

Traditional Welsh tune

This traditional tune, whose Welsh title literally means “lullaby”, was first recorded in print around 1800.

“Suo Gân” is featured prominently in Steven Spielberg's 1987 film Empire of the Sun, where it is lip-synced by a young Christian Bale. It also appears, instrumentally, in the beginning of the 1991 movie Dutch.

Thanks to Chris for suggesting this tune!
