- Cwmbach Male Voice Choir
Who are they?
Formed in 1921, the first taste of success was second prize at the National Eisteddfod of Treorchy in 1928, followed by Cardiff in 1938 and Ebbw Vale in 1958. The first prize was ultimately achieved at Port Talbot in 1966 and repeated in 1968 at Barry. In 1960 they won the Challenge Cup for an unprecedented third time, while in 1962 became the first choir to achieve the unique double of winning first prize in the Chief and Second Male Voice competitions. After a long absence the Choir returned to Porthcawl in 1998 and won the Chief Male competition in its 50th year. Having worked with the likes of Stuart Burrows, Sir Geraint Evans and Dame Gwyneth Jones, the choir has also toured Hungary, USA, France, Belgium, Spain and Canada.
