To counteract the whispers of 'Swing Low' finding their way around the Welsh Capital, we arranged for a special treat for the Welsh fans outside The Yard on St Mary's street. Many thanks to Cor Meibion Male Voice Choir, Fizzi Events (www.fizzievents.co.uk) and to David Bridle videography (www.vimeo.com/bridle) Music by Chris Zabriskie.

    A significant part of Tolkien's genius was his preternatural sensitivity to the music of language. One of his favourite languages was Welsh. Music is in the soul of Wales, to the enrichment of all the world.
  • I’m not welsh, but I love and respect the country and the people and it always brings chills to my bones when I hear the welsh sing

    There is just something magical when you hear Welsh male voices coming together it’s a unique and distinctive sound
  • It's 57 years since I walked up that street to an international match at the old Arms Park, something I can never do again. But that brought it all back!
  • My whole family on my father's side is Welsh! My Grandfather told about memories of men working in the fields in Malad, Idaho U.S. singing in Welsh.

    Wales is the best place I could ever have been born. I could hear the voices of the generations of mining communities shining through these men's voices. Cymru Am Byth.

    I was invited to the RWC England v Wales at Twickenham by a good friend. There were many around us and after the anthems were sung at the start, an Englishman shook my hand and said ‘you Welsh can sing.’ When at the end Wales had won 25-28, he again shook my hand and said ‘you Welsh can sing and by god you can play rugby too’...

    As a  proud Scot I find this almost as emotional as Flower of Scotland, Cymru rydd

    I dated a girl from Cardiff and we went to her local pub and chaps there started singing it gave me goosebumps their singing was so amazing!

    This isn’t uncommon for the Welsh - the last time I was in Scotland for an away game, a male voice choir broke out in a Scottish pub! They were appreciated by all!!

    God, I find these flash mob choirs so moving, so uplifting.

    Marvelous! I've loved Welsh singing ever since I saw the film "How Green Was My Valley" many years ago. I loved watching the crowd and seeing happy faces. Covid is robbing us of happy events like these. Thanks for posting.
  • i am Irish and love the Welsh, their choirs and even their Rugby! Máith Libh~

    Nothing on this planet can come close to the Welsh male choirs. I'm extremely proud of my coal mining and choral heritage.
  • Im english ,have been coming to the valleys with my work over 30 years the people have never been anything other than kind and polite to me

    I'm Irish American and I visited Wales a long time ago - thank you for bringing this magic to me here in the States!
