Not sure if this would fit here, but when I first started researching my Cornish roots, I found the music of Mediaeval Baebes, who apparently sing songs in Cornish.
The song Temptasyon is the Lords Prayer in Cornish and was beautiful.
Any other singers of Cornish music?

I'm afraid I've never heard any music sung in Cornish . Will have to try and find that piece and listen to it. Any ideas where it can be sourced? Although I've never sung any Cornish songs, I've played a few

www.youtube.com/v/Sz_5PexWImoDon't mind the video....I doubt it does the song justice and it is mostly commercialized for the masses....but it was the easiest way I knew! Enjoy!

That was beautiful Erika - even though it stopped and started (probably because I don't quite have enough computing power!). Don't recall hearing anything else sung in Cornish but I do have two or three cassettes of Cornish songs that I bought when I was in Cornwall in 1994 and 1995. These are the Traditional songs such as 'Going Up Camborne Hill'. I would guess there should be some stuff now available on DVD or CD given the clip I have just watched.
