Monaco 2019
Fifty-six choristers left Wales on Wednesday February 27th and stayed overnight at Heathrow Airport. The tour party flew on Thursday morning to Nice Airport where a coach picked them up and transferred them to The Columbus Hotel, Fontvielle, Monte Carlo.
Honorary Member Mark Thomas greeted the choir on their arrival at the hotel.
Friday March 1st, choristers had a dress rehearsal in the afternoon at the magnificent Hotel de Paris.
In the evening the choristers welcomed Honorary Member HSH Prince Albert II on his arrival by performing ‘Men of Harlech’ on the marble staircase of the hotel.
Sadly, HSH Prince Albert was not accompanied by HSH Princess Charlene who was away in Spain at the time.
Dame Shirley Bassey entered the foyer of the Hotel de Paris saying ‘My Boys’,
which was greeted by a round of applause, other guests were from the formula one motor racing fraternity, including former World Champion and TV commentator David Coultard.
After the concert choristers were graciously allowed to have photographs taken with HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, (Honorary Member).
Another successful tour of the principality of Monaco.
We will return.
