ABOUT US City Voices Cardiff was formed in 2008 and made its debut with SING THE MUSICALS in May of that year.

We supported The Forget Me Not Chorus during 2014 and have raised over £6,000 for them from both our concerts and in October some of our members took part in the Cardiff Half Marathon raising almost £1,900 for the total with a little help from a £250 donation from AXA. In 2015 we supported Ty Hapus and at our July concert we raised £1,092 for them, with help from our friends at Legal and General match funding our total. We then raised a fantastic £1,559.32 at our December concert, and a further £302 at an event at Cardiff Golf Club making a grand total of £2,953.32 for the year.

NEW MEMBERS INFORMATION
UPDATE - July 2017
City Voices is now a
well-established choir, with only a few vacancies periodically
becoming available. As a result of this, we have taken the
decision to close our waiting list. Instead, we will be
reviewing our membership bi-annually each May and November. At
that time, we will advertise any vacancies, by voice type, on
our website and Social Media. Therefore, if you are interested
in joining City Voices, please keep an eye on our website or
social media accounts. Any vacancies will be filled on a
first-come first-served basis.
FOR SEPTEMBER 2017 WE HAVE FILLED ALL OUR VACANCIES PLEASE CHECK BACK IN EARLY NOVEMBER FOR POSSIBLE VACANCIES FROM JANUARY 2018 For your

Cardiff from 7.30 to 10pm on Tuesdays. New members are
offered 3 free trial rehearsals over a 5 week period prior to being
asked to decide whether they would like to join the choir.
