Gwalia Singers is bucking the trend and getting bigger and better at a time when many choirs are diminishing and reducing their loads. Matthew, along with our top rate music team, the wonderful Rhian as pianist and former MD Nick Rogers, assistant accompanist Steve Wilson and violinist Gareth Widlake, has plans that will project the choir even further along the road to success. Naturally, those plans include the continuation of our road to top performance. We have a really unusual date for March 5th, singing at Ffos Las racecourse, then back to our regular venue at All Saints for Marie Curie. The same venue will be used for our own Annual Concert on June 11th, as well as having a number of weddings to attend, including one in Ireland! We have plans for another record to be made and will be singing at other music festivals.
Watch out for announcements linking us with the ‘Gwalia Prostate Choir’, not actually related to us, but we will be associated with them for their fundraising for this important cause. Our own travel plans will work towards another October highlight, this year being a visit to old friends in Mannheim, Germany. Life with Matthew will, without doubt, be a continued roller coaster and we look forward to it with enthusiasm. Life is about high quality performance and fun with a great crowd.
We want more members to come with us on our exciting journey. You don’t need to be a ‘professional’ musician, just somebody who enjoys singing, good company and the sense of ‘belonging’ to a happy bunch of like-minded people. Many of us have a history of sporting days and love the camaraderie, so come to a rehearsal to meet the gang, ask any of us about it, or drop us a line. You will be assured of a welcome and then you can start on the road to our next adventures.
