Summary
In Dylan Thomas's radio drama Under Milk Wood (1954), Revd Eli Jenkins eulogised the singing of Polly Garter with the words 'Praise the Lord! We are a musical nation'. Visual culture has long been a vital component in the creation and dissemination of this prevalent national brand. The Art of Music describes the visualisation of Welsh music and musicians both in the context of the evolution of the self-image of the Welsh people, and of its influence on outside perceptions of Welshness within Britain and the wider world.
