Lots of good things happening at Humbrella

We are continuing to make occasional recordings of our songs at our weekly sessions. These will eventually be put onto a CD. So, that's this year's Christmas presents sorted! 

After Whitsun, Stuart will be teaching the group this year's Sing for Water songs. Anyone who wants to take part is welcome to join us to learn the songs. The idea is to raise as much money as we possibly can for WaterAid. There will be an opportunity to sing in the massed choirs event in London, on September 9th, if you wish. See Events page.

On June 30th many members of the group will be participating in the Swansea Big Sing. This is a gathering of community and Natural Voice choirs in South and South West Wales. There will be a workshop in the afternoon followed by a shared performance in the evening, when all the participating groups will perform to each other.

We are Humbrella - Welcome to our Website!

Our repertoire includes songs from around the world - from spine-tingling Georgian harmonies to pulsating African rhythms. 

We are led by Stuart Jones who is a Natural Voice Practitioner See About Us for more info.

As a Natural Voice choir we sing without accompaniment or copies and our songs are filled with harmony. An ability to read music is not needed to sing with Humbrella - just a love of music from all around the world and the enthusiasm to join in the singing.

We meet on Monday evenings at the Llangyfelach Church Hall between 7.30 and 9.30pm.

NEW MEMBERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!
