Llandaff Cathedral Choral Society

The Society

Llandaff Cathedral Choral Society, formed in 1937, is a vibrant mixed chorus of around 100 adult singers from across south Wales and from all walks of life, including students from RWCMD, Cardiff University, UWIC and Glamorgan University.

The conductor is Dominic Neville, a graduate of the University of Cambridge, where he won a Choral Scholarship to sing in the choir of King's College. He is an Academic Lecturer in Music at the National Conservatoire of Wales, The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, and combines this post with conducting the choirs of Cardiff Metropolitan Cathedral and its Choir School St. John's College.

The accompanist is John Cheer who is much in demand as a recitalist, continuo player and accompanist. He teaches piano and organ, is a Music Tutor at the RWCMD and holds a Master's degree in Music Therapy.

In addition to three major concerts at Llandaff Cathedral each year, the Society has sung further afield, including Evensong at Merton College Oxford and also at Clare College Cambridge.

The Society has been selected to take part in the very exciting "Adopt a Composer" project supported by Making Music and this will culminate in a recording and a broadcast on BBC Radio Three.
