Do you enjoy singing? Fancy exploring new forms of music? This may be just up your street!

On Saturday JUNE 6th, choir leader for Côr Cymraeg Coventry, ANDY JONES hosts a rare opportunity to try out a beautiful form of Welsh music called 'cerdd dant' - basically singing harmonies to melodies played on the harp.

You don't have to speak Welsh. You don't even need to read music. Just show up at the Albany Theatre at 2pm, follow Andy's lead and apply your voice to a whole new musical experience. Harp-playing is provided by the Coventry group HARPOTUNITIES.

Admission to the 2-hour session is £8 - or £5 concessions, including students and pensioners. Pay on arrival or book in advance on: https://www.albanytheatre.co.uk/shows/cvfolk-singing-welsh-songs/
