| Added by magataganm, 11 Nov 2014 All Through the Night" (Welsh: Ar Hyd y Nos) is a Welsh folksong sung to a tune that was first recorded in Edward Jones' Musical and Poetical Relics of the Welsh Bards (1784). The Welsh lyrics were written by John Ceiriog Hughes, and has been translated into several languages, including English (most famously by Harry Boulton) and Breton. One of the earliest English versions was by Thomas Oliphant in 1862. The melody was used by John Gay in The Beggar's Opera. It is also used in the hymn "Go My Children With My Blessing." The song is highly popular with traditional Welsh male voice choirs, and is sung by them at festivals in Wales and around the world. The song is also sometimes considered a Christmas carol, and as such has been covered by numerous artists on Christmas albums, most recently including Olivia Newton-John and Michael McDonald who performed the song as a duet on Newton-John's 2007 album Christmas Wish. Cerys Matthews has also sung "Ar hyd y nos". Although this work was originally written for folk instruments, I created this arrangement for Violin, Viola and Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
