The new issue of Llais Y Fro is out now – read about our Cyprus tour, Clanfield concert, forthcoming annual concert on 15th July and lots more!
The Choir’s visit to Clanfield was an absolute fiesta from start to finish. A wonderful community tea on arrival, a sold out audience in very warm and sultry conditions and a packed pub for the brilliant afterglow. Bravo Clanfield – we will return!
A large number of choristers, partners and fans from CMVC have just returned from a brilliant tour to Cyprus where the choir performed 3 fabulous concerts. Combined with the outstanding Achord Community Choir based in Cyprus for the first two performances at St Giorgio Restaurant, Paphos and the imposing Pissouri Amphitheatre, everyone enjoyed a wonderful and uplifting week in the sunshine. None will forget either the plummeting temperature at Pissouri as the wind picked up and night fell, nor the extraordinary reception and deafening applause at our final performance at St Georges Hotel, Paphos. Huge thanks to all involved in organising, particularly John Williams and Bob Jenkins.
An incredible evening of song in the magnificent settings of Llandaff Cathedral was a treat for the capacity audience, raising money for the cancer support charity, Maggie’s Cardiff. Combined with the exceptional talents of Howells School Preparatory Competition Choir, this was a memorable occasion by any standards. If you couldn’t get a ticket, then you can enjoy the entire concert, expertly filmed by the Llandaff Cathedral team, via the following link: https://llandaffcathedral.online/maggies-cancer-concert.
The choir were privileged to be invited to sing in the magnificent Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury on Saturday 24th March to raise money for the Samaritans charity. Performing to a very appreciative and warm audience, over £6,000 was raised through the event – a magnificent sum and full reward for the efforts that the choir made. Congratulations to new chorister debutants Geoff Reed and Stuart McCulloch!
On this St Valentine’s Day we send you our love and a tune to stay in your head all day!

What a fantastic evening of friendship and music as the choir entertained customers at Harry’s Bar on Westgate in Cowbridge, followed by the Duke Of Wellington pub which does so much to support the activities of the choir. Around 25 choristers, accompanied by several partners and other supporters attended what was a genuinely feel-good event. A collection at Harry’s bar collected funds in support of the MIND charity.
