Since its inception in April 1935, under the baton and guidance of Ivor E Sims, the Morriston Orpheus Male Choir has steadfastly embodied the ethos of “making music joyously”. With an esteemed international reputation, a storied history, and the unwavering dedication of its members and staff, it proudly upholds its position as the Ambassadors of Song.
The Choir enjoys an international reputation as a leading exponent of male choral singing. Within the United Kingdom the Choir is in constant demand with around 25 engagements a year, including concerts, TV and after-dinner performances. The Choir regularly undertakes concert tours overseas and in recent years have travelled to Taiwan , Abu Dhabi , Oman, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada and a number of European countries.
In Wales and the UK the Choir has performed in a variety of venues ranging from chapels and village halls to cathedrals and concert halls. It appears regularly in Swansea at the famous Brangwyn Hall in the city centre, as well as the newer Great Hall, at Swansea University’s Bay Campus.
The Choir features regularly on TV. It has produced over 50 recordings and feature in more than 100 compilation albums. Successful ventures into the “pop” world have included recordings with T’Pau, the Welsh group The Alarm, and most recently Howard Jones.
The Choir are looking forward to returning to the GGDPMF and performing a varied programme of some of their favourite arrangements to celebrate the festivals 25th anniversary.
