Nadolig llawen a blwyddyn Newydd Dda i bawb – Happy Christmas and a good New year to everyone!

It is with the greatest sadness that we have to announce the death of choir member, Tony Jones. Tony was a superb second tenor who contributed greatly to the life and spirit of the choir. One of the last occasions on which we enjoyed his company was at our social evening last Christmas, when Tony entertained us playing his guitar and singing. Shortly after he was cruelly diagnosed with cancer of the throat. He will be sorely missed. Our sympathy and condolences go to his wife Pat and his family.

 

On a beautiful suny day last summer, the choir was delighted to sing at the wedding of Rhodri Jones and Emily Thompson. Emily is the daughter of choir member, David Thompson, and Rhodri plays prop forward for the Ospreys and Wales. There must be something about Welsh international prop forwards and the Cardiff Male Choir as this was the second international prop that we have sung for. Just over a year ago we sang at the wedding of Dragons and Wales prop, Ryan Bevington.

If you would like the choir to sing at your wedding, get in touch now. We still have a few vacancies for 2020.

The Choir was honoured and delighted to sing at the Lord Mayor’s Spring Ball in aid of the Noah’s Ark charity. The guests, including guest of honour Dame Shirley Bassey, entered the City Hall to a rousing welcome from the Choir.
Lucy Jones from the Noah’s Ark charity wrote afterwards: “Thank you so much for the part you played at the Spring Ball on the 17th May. We are so grateful for your involvement. We have had fantastic feedback on the night and there were lovely comments about the choir.

We have been very busy calculating all of the numbers and we are delighted to let you know that the event raised a fantastic £35,000 profit which is a brilliant boost to kick off our next big campaign to support among others, children in Wales with severe mental health problems and those in neuro-rehabilitation.”
