We have rehearsed well for our forthcoming Christmas concerts, although not introducing any new items this year. We have also had two new members in Richard Jones and Peter Cooke who have passed their audition. Both have joined the 2nd tenor section and we hope that they will enjoy their stay with us.

However, the biggest news was that Nick has decided to retire/step down as Musical Director with the effect from March 2020. He has been ‘in charge’ since November 2006 and has overseen a huge change in the choir, as can be seen from this website. He has also maintained the style of the Gwalia Singers in arranging many modern songs and some old favourites. Applications are now being received from potential replacements and, hopefully, we will be able to announce a replacement over the next few months. More news on this to follow.
