Diolch o galon i bobl Sefydliad Cerddoriaeth Gymreig WMF am gyngor i'n mentrau tua 2002-07. Trist o glywed am ddiwedd yr SCG heddiw

Very sad to hear about WMF closing down operations. A great team & done amazing things for the music industry in Wales. #WMF

Really sad to hear about the loss of WMF WMF ... I hope someone steps up & covers lost ground now. A huge loss for #Welsh #music x

Ending WMF funding seems short-sighted given assistance they've offered to so many&ROI they've brought in for Wales #culturalvalue

Massive shame about WMF. without the directory, would never have been able to bug ppl for work experience which led to my first job

Such a shame about WMF, a vital key for Welsh music.

While all eyes are on #acefunding #NPO decisions, this has happened in Wales with WMF - truly tragic: welshmusicfoundation.com

WMF. A very sad day. I personally owe you many,many thanks for all support you have given me and the scene over the years. VITAL.

Terrible news re: WMF this morning. They were a big help to us & countless others in last few years & that guidance will be missed.

So so sad to hear that WMF has had to shut down. The directory has been such a help to me over the past year, not to mention...

... All the amazing work they've done for the music industry in wales. It'll be sorely missed WMF

Sad news "WMF: Welsh Music Foundation statement on the closure of operations is now on our website welshmusicfoundation.com"

Thanks to every single act who applied, a bad week for welsh music with WMF et al, but you proved an amazing pool of talent exists

Thanks to Wasters for their kind words last night.

From 2000 this would have been the first Welsh Music Industry Directory - just 70 pages and maybe 200 companies...

When we shut our website last week we had over 1700 companies listed for Wales. Very proud of our role in that growth.
