Welsh Folk Songs

David Roy Saer took up his role as Research Assistant at the Welsh Folk Museum, as it was then known, on New Year's Day 1963. Thus, began years of diligently collecting Welsh folk songs through recording individuals from across Wales, both singing the old verses and recalling how they originally came to hear them.
