Brass & Voices of Wales 

Brass & Voices of Wales is the new album from Owain Arwel Hughes and the Welsh Proms Cymru.

The disc features a selection of the most popular hymns and melodies of Wales, performed by Lewis-Merthyr Band and the Massed Male Choirs of Bridgend & Pendyrus, all directed by the doyen of Welsh orchestral conductors, Welsh Proms Artistic Director, Dr. Owain Arwel 
Hughes CBE.

Containing much of Wales’ most beloved music, the album features the premiere recording of a new work by Christopher Wood, entitled and dedicated to the memory of Aberfan; Gareth Wood’s scintillating creative arrangement of Sosban Fach; the Miner’s hymn “Gresford”, music from the iconic Hollywood movie “Zulu” and much, much more.

Brass & Voices of Wales is produced in association with the Welsh Proms, Wales national classical music festival. The Brass & Voices Prom is a central element of the Welsh Proms and a premier annual showcase for Wales’ proud brass band and male choir music and traditions
