Daydd Iwan - Emynau Dafydd Iwan

Dafydd Iwan sings 14 of his favourite hymns and explains:These great Welsh hymns have been a part of my life since the very beginning, and recording them has been a moving experience for me. The words are powerful, even though the imagery is not of our time, and the tunes refuse to let go. The accompaniment is different, and the arrangements by Hefin Elis are new, but basically these are the hymns I grew up with - expressing the faith which has sustained our nation through the hard times, and has been the underlying joy of the good times.
