Being the only festival of its kind in Wales, it seems only right that this year’s Narberth A Cappella Voice Festival celebrates Welsh culture in true a cappella style!
From Thursday 18th – Sunday 21st, spectacular Welsh acts will dazzle audiences with their repetoire of tunes exploring the traditions, culture and heritage of this proud nation.
One such act will be premier Welsh choir Cordydd, whose sensational vocals have allowed them to win Choir of the Year award four times at the National Eisteddfod – more than any other choir!
