Swansea Male Choir Our choir has a long and interesting history dating back to the dark days of the Second World War, when a group of Air Raid Wardens discussed the possibility of forming a male choir.

By the early 1950’s the choir had established itself with the best in Wales, having taken first prize at the National Eisteddfod at Caerphilly and Llanrwst in consecutive years. Our new name appropriately reflects the greater Swansea area from which we now draw our members from. Just as our choristers are drawn from a wider area, and our performances now take place all over the World, our musical repertoire has also expanded. We still sing the best of many of the traditional tunes in Welsh and in English, but you are just as likely to hear from us popular contemporary music, from the shows, from films or from the hit parade.
