A trip was made to Lanzarote – Canary Islands.

The famous Jameos de Aqua caves complex formed a spectacular venue for a concert by Swansea’s Gwalia Singers during a week-long tour of Lanzarote.  More than 1,000 people filled the natural auditorium for the choir’s inaugural performance in a four-concert tour arranged in response to an invitation from the Lanzarotian Choir.  


The British Consul and the Cabildo, the representative of the Spanish Government on the island, were among the audience.

The choir also performed with their hosts at the castle in Arricefe. the capital of Lanzarote, at a nightclub in Puerto del Carmen and at a centre run by the Norwegian Red Cross for the handicapped and disabled.

Their soprano soloist for the tour was Hazell Howells from Gorseinon.

The choir again took part in Choir of the World in Cardiff.

The Annual Concert was again held with the Talycoppa School Choir in St Mary’s Church, Swansea.

The Annual Dinner was held at the Langland Bay Hotel.

The planned trips to Atlanta, Georgia and to Walsall had not been able to take place.

Choir membership was maintained at 46 with several new members.

Don Frame, past Chairman and Stagemanager, died. He was the first active member of the choir to die since the choir started, and this had a profound affect on the choir at the time.
