A CROSS Roads church will play host to a Welsh choir on Saturday.

The 7pm concert at St James’s Church will feature the Welsh Rhymney Silurian Male Voice Choir.

The choir was formed in 1951 and has won many accolades, including five National Eisteddfod championships, a Cheltenham Choral Gold Cup and a Cornish open championship.

Over the years the choir has supported many national music festivals as well as charity events.

Rhymney is a town in the county borough of Caerphilly in south-east Wales, known through the song The Bells of Rhymney, a musical adaptation of a poem by Idris Davies.

Admission to Saturday’s concert is £5 including tea and biscuits.
