THE next few performances by the Mornington Peninsula Welsh Ladies Choir are being seen as a lead-in to the choir’s inaugural international tour in September.
The repertoire during the choir’s three-week tour of Wales will include Marrandil, by Yothu Yindi singer, Dr G Yunupingu, sung in the Yongu Indigenous language.
The song opened a concert at the Red Hill hotel, Lancemore Lindenderry, on Sunday 18 June.
Another treat for Welsh audiences will be the choir’s rendition of the traditional Welsh song, Hiraeth, which at Lancemore Lindenderry was accompanied by guest artist harpist, Marina van Leeuwen.
Before leaving for Wales the choir will perform in East St Kilda and at the George Jenkins Theatre, Frankston.
