Introduction
Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Spring had come wit all its splendour
Helen Field, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
From his wanderings far to eastward
Arthur Davies, Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Only Hiawatha laughed not
Bryn Terfel, Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
By the shore of Gitche Gumee
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
From the brow of Hiawatha
Helen Field, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
It was neither goose nor diver
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Then the joyous Hiawatha
Bryn Terfel, Arthur Davies, Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Then the generous Hiawatha
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Then the Black-Robe chief, and prophet
Arthur Davies, Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
Heavy with the heat and silence
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
From his place rose Hiawatha
Bryn Terfel, Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
On the shore stood Hiawatha
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
And they said "Farewell for ever"
Chorus of the Welsh National Opera, Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera & Kenneth Alwyn
