This work serves as an introduction to the life and work of a distinguished 20th century composer of Wales. Williams scored for the modern symphony orchestra and helped to place orchestral music in Wales on a new footing, bringing a distinctive Welsh flavour to the concert hall.
"Wisely he allows the music to speak for itself, through the numerous and beautifully printed excerpts from vocal and instrumental compositions that illustrate the text." -Music Teacher
