CWMBRAN
BAROQUE SINGERS
Cwmbran Baroque Singers was formed in 1971.
Dr Geoffrey Tyler was the founder and his vision of
creating a chamber choir to sing little known works,
primarily of Baroque origin, continues to this day.
The repertoire has expanded to include works from the last
seven centuries, including those by such varied composers
as King Henry VIII and Bob Chilcott.
The choir has performed on BBC radio and television. It has
won many local eisteddfodau and was the winner of a
national television competition.
Based in Cwmbran, Torfaen, South Wales, the choir has
travelled widely at home and abroad. It has a special
relationship with the Madrigalchor of Cwmbran's twin town,
Bruchsal, Germany, and has exchanged visits with them on
four occasions.
In recent years, the choir has enjoyed a number of
successful tours to Prague, Salzburg, St. Petersburg and
Florence as well as Budapest and Krakow. The choir now
regards itself as an international choir, singing in many
different styles and many different languages.
