Other Uses
John Williams used a version of Cad Goddeu translated into Sanskrit for his piece "Duel of the Fates" in his score for the film Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. He also directly based the second movement of his 2004 Horn Concerto on the "Battle of the Trees."
Singer-songwriter Tori Amos was inspired by the story of Cad Goddeu for her song Battle of Trees, which appears on Night of Hunters, a narrative concept album, presented as a 21st century song cycle. This song, a variation on Erik Satie's Gnossienne No 1, uses references to Cad Goddeu to reflect on the power of language as a battle-ready weapon.
