Welsh Folk Songs (1954) Meredydd Evans CD

"This item is part of the Folkways archives.  The original liner notes from the LP are included."

During the eighteenth century, the Methodist revival and puritanical reforms nearly obliterated Welsh folk song. Some secular songs were lost altogether, but enough survived to reflect the old traditions, and folksong periodically flourished during subsequent eras. Welsh balladeer Meredydd Evans sings his favorites.
