Choir in the Quad and Cenotaph Centenary

Another busy week last week.

First up was Choir in the Quad, an outdoor concert in aid of the Rotary Club Aberdare held at the Dare Valley Country Park.

Special guests were Aberdare Town Church Primary School who kicked off the proceedings with a bang. Each song they sang was beautifully performed with an enthusiasm that was infectious. We couldn’t have wished for a better start to the evening.

The outstanding weather stayed with us for the rest of the evening as we performed a selection of songs old and new to a very appreciative audience. We helped to raise funds for the rotary club of Aberdare, enabling them to carry on their vital and important work within the community.

Next up was the Centenary service for the Cenotaph in Aberdare.

This important landmark has stood for 100 years and it was a privilege to honour the centenary as well as those who lost their lives in conflicts around the world.

The procession formed at Aberdare library square and marched to the Cenotaph accompanied by Tylorstown Band.

The proceedings culminated in a concert back at library square comprising of ourselves, Dare to Sing and Cwmdare voices (who we also joined forces with to perform). 

A fantastic day indeed.

The heritage of our town and valley is incredibly important to us and we are honoured to play a part in celebrating it.
