I write to thank you for performing at, the St. David’s Day reception at Winfield House.......... I am extremely proud that you were able to showcase the very best of Welsh Male Voice Choirs and it was very much appreciated by the Ambassador and I. I found it heart-warming when you performed my personal favourite Gwahoddiad and then included the Ambassador in the singing of Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau ............this is the first time this event has been held by the US Embassy and the choir's performance played a huge part in its success...........Once again, I am greatly thankful to you all...........I look forward to seeing you in action again soon.

150th Anniversary Monmouth RFC 24th Feb 2023
..The concert was wonderful, such a great community experience. Your choir sounded amazing, and it was good to hear the London group as well. When everyone sang at the end it was very moving, as was the Welsh National Anthem. We just arrived home today and will always have very fond memories of that evening and our entire time in Wales. - William & Jeanne Havlicek (California)
...heartfelt thanks to Monmouth Rugby Club and Monmouth Male Voice Choir for the wonderful hospitality that we received last weekend...............A fabulous concert .......Nights like this become part of the choir folklore and will be remembered for a long, long time.
Let's do it again sometime.

Pre-match singing -Wales v Georgia 19th Nov 2022
Comments received included the following:
"It was a great day and an inspiring performance of the Georgian anthem"
The choirs worked well together in rehearsal and on the field…….the sound was amazing!……the Georgian Anthem went down well with the visiting team and supporters and was a credit to the choirs and their MDs for the work that required to learn words with multiple consonants and not a vowel in sight! ……both Anthems were of a very high standard ………Haydn James - conductor
“I keep telling everyone that it is due to the excellent performance of the Georgian anthem that they were so inspired!”…….Georgia supporter
The singing was highly complimented on Georgian TV
The Georgian commentators specifically focused on the presence of the choir and the fact that they sang in Georgian. They said it was a sign of great respect!

Stuart, Congratulations!
On behalf of everyone at St. Dubricius, thanks so much for the wonderful concert last Friday. I have had so much feedback from delighted members of the audience, not only from Whitchurch, but also Ross and The Forest, who have said that they will be looking out for more of your concerts around the area. Our friends from a Birmingham who were determined to attend were delighted in the singing and the choice of songs.
The music was great and the sound terrific. It was also wonderful to recognise how you all enjoy your singing and the camaraderie within the choir, a real tradition. You even made a convert of someone in the village, who has previously hated, 'that dreadful din' from Welsh choirs. Today she told me how much she enjoyed the music, even the Welsh songs!
Dear Huw, Haydn, and all the members of the choir,
You were all fantastic! ........... the songs and singing during the ceremony was the highlights of the day! Everybody said the choir was phenomenal and we had a long and rapturous round of applause during the speeches! ....... the choir looked, acted, and sounded entirely professional! ......... made the ceremony an unforgettable experience! .......With the greatest of thank you's!
Andrew and Carelyn
Stuart, a personal thanks to you for all your help to me, to be able to organise the concert. Please pass on my best wishes and thanks to everyone involved in the choir. .......Sue Morris
Just a note to thank all at Monmouth Male Voice Choir so much, for your wonderful and inspiring music at our wedding in Usk Church. It was a beautiful service from start to finish and our guests all said how much they enjoyed your performances and leading of the singing at our wedding. It made it special, memorable and uniquely Welsh and we cannot thank you enough for being part of our special day.

We just wanted to drop you a note to say a huge thank you for the choir's performance at our wedding on Saturday. It was a wonderful and very emotional experience, not just for Teri and I, but all our guests. Without exception, all 86 attendees made mention of how moved they were. One couple even downloaded the pieces from the internet, so they could listen again during their drive home!
Thank you!!!!!.........
- The choir's singing was lovely and moved my father to tears....
- Everybody enjoyed your singing....... made the ceremony special and memorable.Thank you all so very much.
- On behalf of Llandenny PCC I would like to thank you and the choir for making Friday night's concert such a success. We have had lots of people saying how much they enjoyed themselves and our treasurer is very happy as we will have made at least £600.
