We sang at Fulton House, Swansea University, at lunch time, on March 1st to celebrate St David’s Day. This has become a regular date in our diary and there was a good audience, many of whom, stayed for the entire performance. We were also treated to a lunch afterwards, even though Les Carmichael, the former catering manager at the University, has now retired. In fact, many of the choristers passed comment about how the catering has improved!! Only joking, Les. The following day we sang at The Core, at the Swansea Bay Campus of the University, again at lunch time, where another meal was provided after the concert. Thanks to the catering staff at the University, for looking after us so well.

We were pleased to welcome another chorister to the choir. Meirion Howells passed his audition and has joined the first bass section. Meirion is a well known member of Swansea Rugby Club and sang with Morriston Orpheus many years ago. We hope he enjoys his time with us.

We were very pleased to be asked to sing at All Saints, Oystermouth, on Friday 17th. There was a small commemoration service to start where further names of local people, killed in the First World War, were added to the existing plaque in the church. We then sang our medley of First World War songs and further items and we were joined by Ros Evans, who also sang a few items. The highlight of the evening was when Ros and the choir ended the evening by singing ‘The Holy City’ together. We also had Steve on the organ for the last chorus. A great sound!

We held our AGM on 22nd, where all officers were re-elected and it was great to have our President, Geoff Wheel, at the meeting. We were also pleased to have Carl Sullivan join our committee. Carl is one of the newest and youngest members of the choir and we hope he enjoys his time on the committee.
