‘Tessie Thomas: The Welsh Violinist’
Abstract:
Among British violinists active during the first third of the twentieth century, Neath-born Tessie Thomas stands out as a remarkable prodigy. Brought up in a musical family, she was already performing virtuoso showpieces by Sarasate at the age of ten; shortly thereafter, she was sponsored by a local J.P. to further her studies in Budapest under the tutelage of the internationally renowned violinist and pedagogue, Jenő Hubay (1858–1937). She made a widely acclaimed London debut in 1917, performing as soloist at the Queen’s Hall promenade concerts; one of her programmes included Edward Elgar’s Violin concerto, conducted by the composer.
During 1917–18, she performed throughout South Wales, including a concerto performance at the Neath National Eisteddfod of 1918. The years immediately following the war saw her give solo and chamber performances across the United Kingdom, and release a number of recordings on 78rpm discs.
In this paper, I trace the performing career of Tessie Thomas and locate her within a significant tradition of female instrumental soloists from Britain. I also analyse the career trajectory of a spectacularly talented violinist during the years c.1910–c.1925, at a period when possibilties for advanced instrumental training in Wales were scarce.

This bilingual lecture traces the history and status of the harp and fiddle in Wales, with particular emphasis on their use in different contexts, the nature of bardic, classical and 'folk' repertoires employed at different periods, and the ways in which the different types of harp, fiddle and crwth are being currently revived.
