Welcome Welsh singer to Buderim



At a recent rehearsal the Buderim Mail choir had a couple of welcome visitors from Wales.

Bryan and Linda Webber were in Australia visiting family so decided to have a listen to a local choir. Bryan is Chairman of the 127-year-old Cardiff Male Choir and he presented choir President, Barry Leigh, with a Welsh Love Spoon as a token of his visit and joined in some of the songs which, of course, included a few Welsh favourites.

The choir’s most recent public performance was at Arcare, Peregian Springs. They were in top form and entertained an enthusiastic audience with a bracket of their favourite numbers.

Their next performance will be joining the choir of Buderim Gardens Village in a joint concert there on Sunday 21 September.

On Sunday 12 October the Choir will present their annual major concert “Songs of the British Isles” at the Buderim War Memorial Hall, where they will be joined by the Buderim Men’s Shed band Flashback. This will be a great concert and the program will consist of well known songs from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

The choir is always keen to welcome new members. You don’t have to be a good singer or to read music to join. All you need is an enjoyment of music and you will be singing in no time. Anyone is welcome to come down to the Buderim Men’s Shed on Mondays at 1.30pm and enjoy a rehearsal.
