Our repertoire, the list of songs we practice and have ready for concerts and events, can change throughout the year. There are traditional MVC songs that we have learnt that can be relied upon for concerts or occassions. We have over 200 pieces in our music library.

Plus, of course, we sing loads of different music at Christmas. Not just yor usual Hark! The Heralds and Once in Royal, but TTBB arrangements of songs and carols. Arangements of Christmas music by our MD. Riu, Riu. Chiu! from South America; The Stable Carol; Mary had a Baby; There is Faint Music; I See A Star; Star Carol and many, many more.
Some tracks above have links of SMVC recordings. If you are considering booking SMVC to sing at an event we may be able to sing any of the music listed below (with sufficient notice). During a "season" we generally have about 24 songs we practice ready for concerts. As the seasons change new songs are added and old sogs are dropped. And YES, we are very proud of the fact we sing some songs in Welsh.
