"It is for his work as a historian and recorder of Welsh music that Edward Jones is significant. In Musical and Poetical Relicks of the Welsh Bards (1784), The Bardic Museum (1802) and Hên Ganiadau Cymru (1820) he published 209 different melodies, most of them Welsh. He gathered them from manuscripts in the homes of the gentry and tune books of harpers and fiddlers; some were sent to him by his numerous correspondents and some he noted from oral tradition . Jones was also the first to print Welsh words to Welsh folksongs." Owain Edwards and Phyllis Kinney in Grove Music Online.

Erstausgabe
London: Strahan for the author, 1802. Large 4to, [3], (iv-xx), [1], 2-112 pp, (pages 61-112 printed music). With a hand-colored engraved frontispiece, drawn by Ibbetson and J. Smith and engraved by Rowlandson, and an uncolored tailpiece. Original leather-backed boards, printed label, all somewhat worn but sound. § First edition of the second volume, complete in itself, of three important books on Welsh music, preceded by Musical and Poetical Relicks. (1784) and followed by Hên ganiadau Cymru: Cambro-British Melodies? (1820). Further volumes were planned but never completed due to Jones's death in 1824. Included in this volume are grammatical rules of Welsh poetry, Bardic triads, British proverbs, odes and verses, and a dialogue between Arthur and Guinevere. "Jones's most important work was in the preservation of traditional Welsh music. He collected and published over 200 traditional melodies, many of which he transcribed from having heard them sung and played at home in north Wales? Jones was a serious scholar who made a notable contribution to the antiquarianism which typified much of the scholarship of his period. His library was extensive, and his research into both primary and secondary sources, including the old Welsh laws and Welsh grammars, enabled him not only to present music, but also to write in some depth about it" (DNB). Born in 1752 into a large and musical Welsh family, Jones found success as a harpist in London society to the point of being named harpist to the Prince of Wales?later George IV?and given the title the King's Bard, or Bardd y Brenin. Later in life, his book collecting and publishing endeavors drove him into debt and forced him to auction his books on two occasions. The remnants of his library was auctioned by Sotheby's in 1825 and even then made around £500 (over £55,000 today).
