The main song on this album was the signature tune for the Rugby World Cup Down Under, where the choir spent three-weeks in concert to launch the album!

This long-established choir is now one of Wales’ best small Male Choirs. With their rich voices and exuberant singing, they have just returned from a tour of Australia and New Zealand. This was the seventh tour Down Under for Côr Godre’r Aran, and their third visit to New Zealand.

The Musical Director/Accompanist is Eirian Owen, who’s a Piano Tutor in Manchester.The album consists of powerful songs such as O Isis ac Osiris, Nkosi Sikelel’i Afrika, Sanctus, Surge Illuminate and Do you hear the people sing?

Four soloists also took centre stage during the tour. Tom Evans Gwanas, Trebor Lloyd Evans and Sion Goronwy are choir members, and Aled Wyn Davies joined them as Special Guest soloist. They are all National Eisteddfod winners.

Casgliad gwych gan y côr o Feirion.

Prif gân albwm Côr Godre’r Aran ydi arwyddgan Cwpan Rygbi’r byd draw yn y wlad lle lansiodd y côr eu CD!

Aeth CÔR GODRE’R ARAN i Awstralia i lansio yr albwm yma yn ystod Hydref 2003. Dyma'r seithfed tro iddynt ymweld â’r wlad honno, a buont hefyd yn perfformio yn Seland Newydd am y trydydd tro.

O dan arweiniad medrus Eirian Owen, sy’n arwain a chyfeilio, cafodd y cynulleidfaoedd y gwahanol ganolfannau wledd. Yn ogystal â chlywed y côr yn canu caneuon grymus o’r albwm fel Byd o Heddwch, O Isis ac Osiris, Nkosi Sikelel’i Afrika, Sanctus a Bydded goleuni, roedd unawdwyr nodedig yn perfformio. Mae’r pedwar yn enillwyr cenedlaethol – Tom Evans Gwanas, Trebor Lloyd Evans, Sion Goronwy ac Aled Wyn Davies (unawdydd gwadd).
