Cantorion Gogledd Cymru

Cantorion shares with many of Wales’ other male voice choirs a real sense of community and fellowship. This could be considered unusual because its members are drawn widely from North Wales and its many choirs. They are representative of the different rural and urban communities to be found in the region from the busy seaside resorts, hill and lowland farming areas, busy market towns and industrial centres. The choristers do not have the same opportunity to meet and rehearse like other choirs and could potentially lack the cohesion that naturally develops between colleagues living and working in the same localities but this mix of singers actually enriches the chorus and the joy and pride of sharing the Welsh language, in particular, clearly cements closer friendships and social harmony. The Welsh language, like Italian, seems to fit comfortably with some of the loveliest melodies and carries with it a culture readily expressed in the attitude, performance, and well-being of the choir.
