Singing success in Soar & Ilan
OPERATION ZULU - COMMUNITY CHOIR INVITATION
At the weekend communities in Penygraig and Rhydyfelin rocked to the sounds of South Africa as Valleys Kids held the opening sessions of their Community Choir that will form a vital part of their ambitious Operation Zulu.
These were taster sessions led by experienced choir leader Chrys Blanchard and people of all ages from seven year olds to pensioners wrapped their tongues around the unfamiliar sounds of several African languages until by the end they were belting out a traditional Zulu song with the gusto of a Soweto choir.
The repertoire is not exclusively African and could well extend to Beatles songs, Welsh hymns and songs from the shows. The sessions are open to all, there is no obligation to sign up for the project ; everyone who just wants to spend an enjoyable morning singing is welcome.
The next session will be held at Soar Centre, Penygraig next Saturday 29th June at 10.30am - 12.30pm.
