After 5 years in post Liz Hughes is stepping down as Musical Director of Cor Meibion Caerwys. This afternoon in the golf club members of the choir met to say farewell and offer their thanks. Liz has significantly developed the choir during her time in command; she has also adapted many new pieces of music for a four part male voice choir. The highlight for me came during the National Eisteddfod held in Mold in 2007 when our choir competed in the prestigious Saturday competition. We did not win, or even come close to winning, but it was an amazing experience. Our visit to Kilkenny in Ireland to take part in the pan-celtic festival was another highlight of Liz's time as leader of the choir. In a week or so rehearsals start up again, but with a new musical director. Yet for today it is Diolch yn fawr Liz - you will be missed.
