We are a friendly, inclusive choral society, based in Cardigan, west Wales. We sing a variety of work from the classical repertoire, including sacred, opera, and early music.
From our founding early in 2016, we developed our musical skills and gave many thrilling concerts under the guidance of conductor Henry Ward. We are pleased that our first concert of 2019 will be conducted by the well known musical director Margaret Daniel.
Join us!
New members are always welcome. There's no audition. We mostly sing from printed scores, though not all of us read music.
Just speak to any choir member or e-mail info@cor-teifi.org.uk .
