Welsh Music for Voice & Harp
This album focuses on an area that held John Thomas attention throughout his career: a love for
the traditional song from his native Wales. He wrote many arrangements for harp, with or without
song; some of the nicest are collected on this album. Mezzo-soprano and harpist Rachel Ann
Morgan has become internationally known for her concerts, in which she accompanies herself on
the concert harp and the Celtic harp. She has performed in Japan, America, Canada, and Russia,
as well as in many European countries. Edward Witsenburg is the doyen of Dutch harpists, with a
career that extends over more than half a century. He continues the tradition set forth by celebrated
Dutch harpist Rosa Spier, who was famous for her expressive style of playing.
