There is no sound quite like the stirring sound of a Welsh male voice choir, with the passion and hwyl that blends the choral tradition of the past with musical talent of the 21st century.

St Mary's Church has presented a series of male voice choir concerts on Sunday evenings during the summer every year since 1989 - and this year is no exception. We will be welcoming the following choirs in 2011:
