  • A Thousand Voices
    A THOUSAND VOICES A history of the London Welsh Male Voice Choir’s innovative decision to hold massed Male Voice Choir Festivals at The Royal Albert Hall One Thousand Welsh Voices. What a great name and what a great concept. For my fifth Lockdown project I look at one of the defining events that has shaped the choir and how a bunch of amateur musicians armed only with vision, ambition and two hundred pounds in used bank notes, managed to put on a world-renowned musical event at the Royal Albert Hall. By contacting some of the people who were present for the decision to hold the first Thousand Voices Festival, I have managed to put together a fairly detailed account of the pitfalls and rewards of such a venture and the events that led up to it. I have also included a very short history of the London Welsh Community as it has also played its part in the story. It has been interesting, controversial and informative and it has sometimes driven me to drink. My thanks to the many contributors who donated their memories. I have mentioned them at the end of this document. f there was one event that epitomised the London Welsh Male Voice Choir during the late 60s, 70s and 80s Ithen it has to be the Festival of Male Voices, held at The Royal Albert Hall. Known universally as The Thousand Voices, this Festival was innovative, successful and gained the London Welsh Male Voice Choir the global recognition that it enjoys to this day.

I have attended the 4th Section finally having a good idea and good intentions, but the pieces aren’t at many different ‘Areas’ over the years, and it is obvious to me that there actually ‘new’; they are, in fact, second-rate imitations of their favourite is a real problem with picking a single test-piece to suit all competitors. At composers’ style. Why try to copy Sparke, Graham, Wilby et al? They do it that level, bands may be made up of 17 players, mainly aged over 60, who best. attend rehearsals and contests for the social aspect and a fun day out. So where is the original talent? Simon Dobson and Peter Meechan are Others may boast a band full of promising youngsters, while some bands two original voices who are proven in the brass band arena, and Gavin may have only one percussionist or a depleted bass section. Why not Higgins, Lucy Pankhurst and Andy Scott seem to be composers whose cater for them all by allowing them to pick a piece that will suit them and music is fresh, exciting and original too.

By 1913 Barry became the largest coal exporting port in the world with Cardiff second. These mines and their buildings, mountains of overburden from tunneling and of stored coal, defaced and destroyed the beauty of the valleys and hills of Wales. Fortunately much has, and is being done now, to restore these hills and valleys to their former glory. The terraced miner’s cottages remained and have grown to become some of the settled towns of Wales - Towns such as Treorchy and Aberdare.

About to perform for the audience at the Schönbrunn Palace. Despite the fact that we had to sing a capella , the audience appeared to have loved our performance and we received many compliments.
