Côr Cymru
Rondo are proud to be responsible for S4C's prestigious choral competition, Côr Cymru, for a fourth year.
Choirs from Wales or those further afield with a close connection to Wales, or choirs which perform regularly in the Welsh language, are welcome to enter this biennial competition which has gone from strength to strength.
The competition is split into five categories: Children’s Choirs 16 years of age and under; Youth Choirs under 25 years of age; Mixed Voice Choirs; Female Voice Choirs and Male Voice Choirs with the winner from each category going forward to the final.
The competition’s previous winners are mixed choir Cywair from Newcastle Emlyn (2007), Serendipity from Cardiff (2005) and Ysgol Gerdd Ceredigion (2003).
As well as the overall award, there is also a special prize awarded to the competition’s best conductor. 2007 saw Mari Pritchard, conductor of Côr Ieuenctid Môn (Anglesey Youth Choir) win the title with Sioned James of Côrdydd winning the award in 2009.
