Transcript This is Bridgend Male Choir

This is Bridgend Male Choir
Choral sounds of male voice singing lifts the heart and stirs the soul,
As sweet, surging, Hallelujahs from lips of tenors roll.
Bass and baritones 'Amen' echo from valleys through the vales
Anthems glorious, songs of Wales.

Did you know?
• Young enough to be popular, yet
with a patina of age which enables
traditional pieces to be sung with
awe and passion, members of the
