註釋This is the story of a great musician and teacher, Griffith Jones, as told by two of his grandchildren, Thomas Jones and Carol Ann Murray. It is the tale of the son of a Welsh miner who immigrated to the United States when he was six years old and then became one of the greatest choral conductors of his time. He conducted choral groups all over Ohio and Pennsylvania and received the coveted Eisteddfod Prize in Wales in 1934. The authors describe the musical talents Griffith passed on to his son and three daughters and also the three or four generations that followed. This inheritance of a Welsh talent of music, teaching, and stubbornness is the inspiration that led to this book.
