Welsh Gold: The Great Singers
Description
It is not an overstatement to say that the 21st century so far in the world of popular classical music in Britain has been dominated by singers from Wales, a small country which punches far above its weight when it comes to music.
From the towering bass-baritone of Bryn Terfel to the thrilling warmth of Katherine Jenkins‘ rich mezzo-soprano voice, the soaring purity of boy soprano Aled Jones and celebrated choirs including Only Men Aloud and Ysgol Glanaethwy, this album celebrates the best of Welsh classical performers.
