About “Cyngerdd Dydd Gwyl Dewi!” – Saint David's Day Concert...This Male Voice Choir performs hymns and other traditional pieces in both Welsh & English. They sing songs from Ireland and Scotland, sea shanties, spirituals, a little opera, English and American folk songs, a few pieces in German and Latin. Included will be music honoring St. David, the patron saint of Wales, which will be sung in Welsh, the native tongue of that country. A review in the Mashpee Enterprise (July 2, 2010), in part, had this to say about We Are The Men: “They perform in the all-male-choir Welsh tradition rooted in the time when Welshmen labored in the coal mines and sought diversion in singing together.” Later, the review noted: “Also performed were four traditional hymns. Each contained more than several measures of 'amen' and 'alleluia;' each one unique and yet as powerful as the previous. This was music of the spirit, and it was apparent from the choir's focused energy that these singers loved the praising aspect of these pieces...the concert left the audience in a joyous spirit.”
Join us for a concert of memorable music!
