Kerlenn Pondi
Kerlenn Pondi is a traditional Breton music group comprising a bagad and a Celtic circle. It was founded in Pontivy, Morbihan, in 1953 based on two older groups, the Garde Saint-Ivy and the "Moutons Blancs". It inherited the name of the latter association as its nickname, due to the woolly color and texture of the region's costumes.
In 2015 his bagad was ranked in the first category of the National Bagadoù Championship, having won it just once before, in 2001. It has also produced five albums since its creation. The Cercle Celtique is also in the top category of the Kendalc'h competitions, having won just once in 1966. These two groups frequently perform together and have been instrumental in preserving the music of Britanny and dance tunes such as the laridé-gavotte and gavotte Pourlet.
The association is also active in other areas of Breton culture, such as the Breton language and the organization of events like Kan ar Bobl.
