An evening with the Aber Valley Welsh Male Voice Choir

On Monday 18th July, The Sick Children’s Trust held an evening with the Aber Valley Welsh Male Voice Choir at RGS Newcastle.

The 40-strong ensemble performed a mixture of traditional and contemporary songs including Nessun Dorma, Bring Him Home and the Rhythm of Life. The choir were supported by Morpeth based soprano Rachel Dyson who thrilled the audience with her beautiful voice, performing a mixture of romantic arias and songs from My Fair Lady/

The audience thoroughly enjoyed the evening, not just for the wonderful singing but for the unique sense of humour the choir added to the event. We hope to work with the choir again when they return to Newcastle upon Tyne in 2013.

The event, sponsored by Ward Hadaway Law Firm and hosted by David Haley, was a great success and raised £1200 for our ‘Home from Home’ Crawford House at the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle upon Tyne.
