ales is a nation of many talents, and the Welsh language - one of the oldest living languages in Europe - has been the vehicle of poetry and song for over 16 centuries. Welsh male choirs and harmony singing are known all over the world, but Wales also has a wealth of solo singers and a long tradition of folk songs. This collection has been carefully selected from twenty of the best albums ever recorded in Wales to give as full a picture as possible of Welsh singing in its glorious variety - from the haunting "Myfanwy" to the stirring "Men of Harlech" from the exuberant rugby song "Sosban Fach" to the majestic hymn sung by five thousand united voices. This album also features some of Wales' most notable voices, including that of the great lyrical tenor Stuart Burrows, the language activist and troubadour Dafydd Iwan, the unforgettable Mary Hopkin, and the greatest boy treble of them all, Aled Jones. Wherever you are, sit back and listen to the music of Wales.
