The beloved Welsh folk melody is introduced in this arrangement by playing chords in scale-wise motion. The texture alternates between chordal and linear - thick and sparse. Lots of step-wise motion in eighth-note rhythm is used to lend a flowing effect. Pay attention to the dynamic shading for a better musical picture. A total of 64 measures, this lovely setting is scored in C Major.
