  • And We Were Singing Hymns and Arias …
    AND WE WERE SINGING HYMNS AND ARIAS ….. More memories from Joe For the third of my lockdown projects, and with the help of Gethin Williams, Keith Warren, Jeremy Wood and Dr Haydn James, I take a look at all the sporting arena performances that the London Welsh Male Voice Choir have been involved in. The Arenas The rehearsals are over. You walk out in your red jackets, heart-thumping, into a half empty stadium and stand on the pitch, pre-match, looking at the vast space of the arena that will, in a short time, be packed to the rafters with fervent supporters. You are performing to a captive audience who’s heart and soul are perfectly in tune with yours and who give you their undivided attention as the atmosphere is ramped up minutes before kick-off. You are privileged to be here, walking on hallowed turf. You feel the excitement and pride of appearing before an expectant nation. You smell the newly cut and watered grass. You hear the roar and stand in unison with your heroes as they walk onto the pitch. There is a moment’s silence as the crowd rises and all eyes are on you, and your eyes are on the conductor, as his baton brings in the band accompaniment before experiencing the spine-tingling emotion of singing your national anthem to an arena packed with rugby fans and a live television audience of millions. You are part of extraordinary matches and witness legends being made, and folklore created in song. You are on the fi eld with The London Welsh Male Voice Choir and you will be part of some of Wales’s most iconic rugby matches in modern times.

    The Welsh Rugby Union Limited Annual Report 2012 Adroddiad Blynyddol 2012 Undeb Rygbi Cymru Cyf Song at the Year’s Turning After R.S. Thomas The Millennium Stadium Cardiff, Midnight, New Year’s Eve 2011/2012 The firework’s cannon-echo fades, the rocket’s falling star decays as first with seconds, then minutes the year begins to carve its ways. The pitch grass is pale and short, dew-damp underfoot, the blades coaxed by low-suspended lamps further from their roots. Everything is to come, the stadium a vessel, the quiet a settled dust, a stillness anticipating the violence of a match day’s lust. The stands of seats are a crucible of voices, everything still to say, a hundred exit men between them, running their lives away. The soundscape of a cave, dripping in the night. Or a winter wood where every creak and sigh suggests the ear of tooth or blood. A single bird takes flight across the opened roof as if lifting from a bough, its feathers lit, as bright as a sub breaking from touch like the breaking of a vow. A blessing? Perhaps. For seasons and matches also have their grace, not only turning but returning too, beginning at the same beginning place. We are grown from memory but alive only now, our past breaths upon the wind. Whatever has been done, though there, is gone; whoever sinned, whoever won, is recalled and forgotten here, where glory, bruise and blame will all be washed away by now. The new grass shall purge us in its flame.

  • Article Title
    International In-house Counsel Journal Vol. 9, No. 33, Autumn 2015, 1 Millennium Stadium Experience Joint Venture: A Busy (Legal) Year RHODRI LEWIS Head of Legal Affairs, Welsh Rugby Union Group, UK & GERALLT JONES Head of Corporate and Banking, Hugh James, UK Introduction The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, opened in 1999, was recently voted the best rugby stadium in the world. Its city centre location and fully retractable roof (the first in the United Kingdom) have ensured that it is a 74,500 capacity ‘must play, must see’ venue. At the time of writing, the Millennium Stadium is hosting matches in the 2015 Rugby World Cup – the third time that the Rugby World Cup has been hosted in Cardiff, the stadium being the venue for the 1999 Rugby World Cup final. But it is not only rugby that is played there. The Millennium Stadium has hosted FA Cup Finals, football matches in the 2012 Olympics and other international football matches, motor sport and a number of high profile concerts from the likes of Madonna, Rihanna, Bruce Springsteen, Oasis, Take That, Paul McCartney and U2. Messi, Ronaldo or Bale could be among the latest sporting heroes to grace the turf of the Millennium Stadium, following the recent announcement that the stadium will be the venue for the UEFA Champions League final in 2017. Given the global TV audience for the UEFA Champions League and the exposure that Cardiff will receive as the host city, this will be another opportunity for the Millennium Stadium to showcase its ability to host world-class international events.
