Mrs. Morwen Pugh - Musical Director (Cyfarwyddwr Cerdd)

 

MORWEN PUGHMrs Morwen Pugh, L.R.A.M., (retired music teacher) who has been with the choir since its conception in 1969.
It was Morwen who actually founded the choir following informal chats with some of ‘Her Boys’ who wanted to sing and ‘have some fun’. She has been its inspiration ever since and some of those ‘boys’ (a little greyer perhaps, but certainly no wiser!) are still singing today.
