Welcome to the Côr Meibion Maelgwn Male Voice Choir...
Saturday, 21st December from 6:30pm
Our members agreed that we should also use this event to enjoy a Christmas dinner of our own, so we interspersed our dinner by assembling by the Christmas tree and singing carols and other items between our courses.
All agreed that it was a very enjoyable and successful event and we are very grateful to Andrew and Samantha, the Management of the Pen-y-Bryn, for generously accommodating us and our partners, and also for inviting us again this year.

The Perth Male Voice Choir from Western Australia has been performing for over 98 years and currently has over 60 members. The Choir performs for a variety of events in and around Perth averaging over twenty concerts including a number of charity events most years.
The Choir undertook its first overseas tour of the UK in 2018, performing five concerts in South Wales, including in St David’s Cathedral and then the Cotswolds. The Choir then performed at the Albert Hall as part of the London Welsh Festival of Male Choirs with 16 other male choirs from around the world. This year we are touring Chester and North Wales with concerts in Chester, Llandudno, Llanfairfechan, Betws y Coed, Beaumaris, and Caernarfon.
Although it is not a Welsh Choir, it sings in the Welsh tradition of four-part harmony with a piano accompaniment and includes a number of songs in Welsh in its varied repertoire.
The Concert raised £500 for the Church
