Have song, will travel – Aber Valley Male Voice Choir to perform at Daffodil Weekend 2022

Last summer, Thriplow Cricket Club (TCC) stalwarts, the Turners and the Neilds, spent a rather fine day at Lords watching England take on India. Whilst Dickon and Chris focussed their attention on whether extra cover should be a yard closer, Lisa and Jenny found themselves looking to their right where two smartly dressed chaps were very taken by the TCC daffodil emblem on Lisa’s top. It turned out that the two men were core members of the Aber Valley Welsh Male Voice Choir. Six hours and after a couple of glasses of wine later, a deal had been done to include a slot at the Thriplow Daffodil Weekend in their tour for 2022. Sadly, the result in the cricket was not nearly as successful.

The Caerphilly based Aber Valley Male Voice Choir was formed in 1959 and has performed in Europe, North America, the Albert Hall and at the opening of the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. They will shortly be able to add Thriplow to their list, and are looking forward to being able to wear the daffodil of South Wales in the daffodil capital of South Cambridgeshire!

Their motto is 'Have song, will travel’.
