Charlestown, Cornwall
Join us onboard Lady Daphne in Charlestown Harbour where we have the privilege to welcome the legend that is Harry Glasson.
This is your opportunity to hear Harry Glasson perform his songs in an Intimate atmosphere
Throughout my life I have loved music, folk music in particular, songs that told stories and if based on truth, even better. I built an acoustic guitar in school, not very good but playable. I have nearly always written poems, verses, songs but only from the late eighties on did I start to sing any of my own material in public. It started with humorous dialect verse and gradually lead to songs about my love for the history and culture of Cornwall. In 1997 the Cape Cornwall Singers were formed and I was singing one night in the Star Inn at St Just when the landlord asked me where I got “Song for Cornwall” from, I told him I had written it when Cornwall won the rugby against Yorkshire in 1991. He then told me about the newly formed Cape Singers and how they would love to sing it. It has been said that I inspired them to sing, their singing certainly inspired me to write. The Cape boys are still special to me. The song I wrote for them “Cornwall my Home” has certainly caught the imagination of people from far and wide and shows just how much Cornwall is revered far and wide.
