Cofio Leah A Fu'n Fentor I Nifer Helaeth O Gantorion

Bu llais arbennig Leah Owen yn swyno cynulleidfaoedd am ddegawdau, ond roedd hi hefyd yn arweinydd, tiwtor, beirniad a chyfansoddwr hynod lwyddiannus.

Bydd ei hetifeddiaeth yn cael ei dathlu yn ystod Noson Lawen - Cofio Leah Owen a fydd yn cael ei darlledu ar S4C am 7.30pm nos Sadwrn, Ionawr 4, union flwyddyn ar ôl iddi farw yn 70 oed.

Cafodd ei magu yn Rhosmeirch ar Ynys Môn, a bu'n byw ym mhentref Prion yn Sir Ddinbych am flynyddoedd gyda'i gwr Eifion Lloyd Jones a phedwar o blant, Angharad, Elysteg, Ynyr a Rhys.

Bydd y rhaglen yn cael ei harwain gan ddau o'i chyn-ddisgyblion, seren y West End Mared Williams a Steffan Hughes, canwr talentog, cyflwynyd a sylfaenydd y grwp poblogaidd Welsh of the West End, sydd wedi perfformio i bobl fel y Tywysog William, Shirley Bassey a Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Ymhlith y rhai sy'n rhannu eu hatgofion o Leah fydd ei gwr Eifion a'i merch, Angharad, ynghyd â llu o ffrindiau a chyn-ddisgyblion, gan gynnwys Celyn Cartwright, Siân Eirian, Siriol Elin, Gwenan Mars- Lloyd a Branwen Jones.

Dywedodd Steffan, a gafodd ei eni a'i fagu yn Llandyrnog ger Dinbych: "Byddwn yn cofio ac yn dathlu cyfraniad a thalent person oedd yn agos iawn at ein calonnau. Roedd hi'n fraint cael talu teyrnged iddi a dathlu ei bywyd."

Ategwyd y teimlad gan Mared, o Lanefydd ger Dinbych, a ychwanegodd: "Mae pawb yn adnabod llais cwbl unigryw Leah Owen ond roedd hi hefyd yn arweinydd, tiwtor a chyfansoddwr ac yn fentor i gymaint ohonom.

"Bydd atgofion a digon o ganu yn y rhaglen ac ymunodd llawer o ffrindiau a theulu Leah gyda ni yn y gynulleidfa."
