Is there any sound more evocative of the spirit of Wales than 200 male voices invoking the magic of Parry’s Myfanwy, or unleashed in the full-throated hwyl of the Roman War Song from Rienzi? Owain Arwel Hughes leads the Welsh Proms Massed Male Choir and Wales & the world’s number one brass band, the Cory Band, in a rousing evening of the great Welsh hymns, opera choruses and favourite classical works. Cymru am byth!
