The WNAA eHymnal Project was created as a free learning tool to help those who may not be familiar with Welsh hymns to learn to pronounce the Welsh words and sing their voice parts, and enjoy in full measure the great choral tradition of Welsh four-part singing.
The hymns are those in Welsh and English Hymns and Anthems, published by the WNAA. The eHymnal MP3 files are meant to be used alongside the National Gymanfa Ganu Hymnal. You will want to have a copy of this book at hand as you listen to the eHymnal recordings.
Each hymn in this collection has been broken down and contains a recording of:
- the pronunciation of the Welsh hymn verses
- the music for each individual voice part (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass)
- the music of the hymn tune with all four voices in full harmony
The recordings in the eHymnal are MP3 files, which can be stored and played on your:
desktop computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone and portable MP3 player (such as an iPod).
There are many variables with each device, if you have questions email ehymnal@thewnaa.org and we will attempt to assist you.
The eHymnal downloads are free for non-commercial use. After first agreeing to terms of a use you will be redirected to the download page.
