If you are wanting to find a local choir to join you'll find a warm welcome with us in the Rock Choir. The Cardiff Rock Choir is led by singer/pianist Paul Mansford. We have a great year lined up and we would like to invite you to join our choir and take part in the local Cardiff and wider area. We are the Cardiff rehearsal of the trailblazing Rock Choir. We often team up with the other local choirs to perform in groups of 200, 800 and even 11,000 at Wembley Arena for the ITV1 documentary 'The Choir that Rocks'. These inspirational moments are unique to the Rock Choir experience. It's unbelievable and you can still join the choir. See why your local Cardiff choir is so popular by booking a FREE taster session!. It's the new friends, the performance achievements, the socials, our incredible choir leader Paul and above all - singing those wonderful chart hit song arrangements! Here is a quote about our choir - 'Rock Choir has given me a new dimension in life - I joined after my dad died as I knew I needed something new to focus on. I come down to choir on the train from home and in the winter waiting around at a freezing station is not very appealing when its lovely and warm at home, but I never want to miss a session no matter how tired, cold or grumpy I feel. When my husband picks me up he always says the same thing - I am always bubbly and happy and looking forward to the next week.' - Liz (Rock Choir Member) Rock Choir is a winner of the Red Ribbon 'Big Heart' Award [https://rockchoir.com/awards-achievements/]. and holds 1 former and 2 current Guinness World Records. The choir is also credited with single handedly starting the contemporary choir movement.
