The Queens Hall, Narberth
Fri 24-Sun 26 Feb
In its ninth year, the A Cappella Voice Festival will enchant Narberth for an entire weekend. On Fri 24, headliner Helen Chadwick invites you to go on a journey with her as she brings to life the age-old Celtic tradition of storytelling to life through singing. Bella Voce, Chicago’s premier professional chamber choir, will follow, with their clean and pure precision sound. Then, Môr Ladron (The Pirates), a beer-swilling, swashbuckling a cappella quartet from Ceredigion, will finish off the night with heart.
Sat 25’s performances include Fistful Of Spookies – a male sextet whose social media betrays their collective love of pies, and who mesh comedy and a capella to bring you a unique brand of “hairy harmonies and tomfoolery.” The Oxford (University) Gargoyles are a jazz a cappella group who suit up and sing and have gained an international reputation for class and talent combined. Then finally, brought to you by Span Arts charity the Cheerful Project, Côr Pawb (Everyone’s Choir) give you Côr Pawb Bach – a slice of Côr Pawb.
Sunday will host the return of Côr Pawb, this time in full fashion. Made up of performers aged seven to 70, this uplifting group will be sure to finish the festival with a bang with a concert titled Sing For Your Sarnies.
Admission: £14-£18 (performances) / £12/£10 (workshops). Info: 01834 869323
