Côr Cymraeg for Welsh learners, fun singing for carers, improvisation, community choirs
I have been leading songs since 2005, with singers in Mid-Wales and Cardiff. I currently lead Eosau (the Welsh word for Nightingales), which is a Singing for Fun Friday morning group, a Côr Cymraeg group for Welsh language learners. I love how singing brings us shared fun and feeling, and enhances our awareness of eachother. I would love to do more improvised sound-making with others.

We aim to support people to learn Welsh through learning and singing songs in Welsh. Everybody is welcome whatever your level of Welsh. The atmosphere is relaxed and we have tea and biscuits in the break.
Every 3rd Saturday of the month, 11am until 1pm.
We are funded by Credu, the Welsh charity supporting carers. Our original members are carers and we now welcome everyone. It is free to attend.
Eosau is the Welsh word for Nightingales, chosen after the song which we sing, “I have a Million Nightingales” by Linda Hirschhorn and Mahmoud Darwish.
“The sessions have a significant impact on my health because singing helps my breathing, and on my well-being because I love to sing, and especially to sing with others. It is both uplifting and grounding, and very precious!”
“It’s wonderful being able to have some time out from being a carer, singing, chatting and exercising with other people for a while, and Iona always makes it feel easy and undemanding, which is just what you need!” – Jill
Fridays 11am - 12.30pm. We sing in half term, but not over Christmas and Easter. If in doubt contact Iona for dates.
Heartsong is a Community Choir based in Aberystwyth. Membership is open to anyone who wishes to sing, regardless of previous experience or existing level of skill.
