A TOWY Valley choir is set to celebrate its 50th anniversary with a special concert.

Llandielo-based Côr Meibion Dinefwr, formed in 1966 by the late Noel John, will will host a concert as part of the celebrations on Saturday, October 29 at Capel Newydd, Llandeilo at 7.30pm.

Guest performers will include Shan Cothi, the Three Tenors - Crwys Evans, Robyn Lyn Evans and John Davies - with their accompanist Gareth Wyn Thomas. The concert's chairman will be Jeff Thomas, OBE.

Admission programmes are on sale from choristers.

Before the main event at the end of October a hot buffet has been organised as part of the celebrations at the Plough Inn, Rhosmaen on Saturday, October 1.

If any past member or any supporters of the choir wish to attend contact the choir secretary, Gerard Murphy, on 07973144238 or email dinefwrsec@gmail.com

The choir is also looking for a new bilingual conductor to replace John Williams, the present conductor who is retiring from his post in the new year.

If anyone is interested in taking up the post get in touch with one of the choristers for more details.
