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.”

On the 29th May, the Choir had a visit from a very special lady, Bethan Wynne Phillips. Bethan is accompanist for the Amman Valley Male Voice Choir, and she celebrates her 30th birthday in 2020 (the same year that the Amman choir itself turns 30), and as part of the celebrations Bethan has chosen to undertake 30 various fund-raising activities on behalf of the Amman choir’s nominated charity, MIND Cymru.

One of the challenges is to obtain 30 ‘selfies’ with 30 South Wales Male Voice Choirs, and CMC was delighted to help Bethan achieve her goal.

For the third consecutive year the choir helped the villagers of Penllyn to celebrate St David’s Day. In doing so the choir has enabled the village to purchase not just one but two defibrillators. A good time was had by all and after the event we retired to the Red Fox for an informal sing-song.

On Saturday, 23rd February, the choir entertained guests of Legends Hospitality in the Radisson Blu Hotel. Former Welsh internationals J.P.R. Williams, Robert Jones and J.J. Williams were there to speak to Legends’ guests and the choir was in full voice to put everyone in good spirits before going off to watch the game.

The choir looks forward to returning to the Radisson Blu on Saturday, 16th March to entertain guests of Legends Hospitality prior to the Wales v Ireland match.

Cardiff Male Choir Weddings

Cardiff Male Choir are honoured to perform at weddings across South Wales (and beyond) every year, and we’ve been blessed as a choir to add that special touch to so many couples wedding days.

In December 2017, Cardiff Male Choir sang at Jonathan and Lucy’s 1940s inspired wedding which has recently been featured on the Love My Dress website.

“We had the magnificent Cardiff Male Choir to accompany the hymnal singing at the church and to entertain our guests back at Rosedew. Since our friends Beck and Rhys got married and we witnessed their incredible choir, we knew it was something that would be pretty high on our lists of wants. CMC did not disappoint. They were so welcoming at the rehearsal we attended and looked and sounded amazing on the big day. Personal highlights were the Eli Jenkins Prayer, It’s Not Unusual by Tom Jones and seeing Wayne cry to Band of Brothers.”
