The
Choir has continued with its policy of charitable work bringing help
to many hundreds of charitable organisations and thousands of pounds
for their various causes.
Over the years, the choir has competed successfully in contests throughout
Britain from Llangollen to London. Other achievements include international
honours in the B.B.C.'s 'Let the People Sing' competition including
the cherished Rose Bowl for the most outstanding entry from the British
Isles. They have also received awards from the Cornish Gorsedd and
have won the Edgar Kessell Gold Cup for the best performance of any
choir at the Cornwall Music Festival among their honours.
The most recent success was in March 2011 at the Cornwall COunth
Music Festival held at the Truro, when they won the Male Voice
Choir Championship.
The Choir has been privileged to appear with many outstanding artists
including Wendy Eathorne, John Treleaven, Carlo Curley, and the Bournemouth
Synfonietta the Band of the Grenadier Guards and Black Dyke Mills
Band.
In keeping with their position as one of the premier Choirs in Cornwall
and the Westcountry, the Choir has completed successful tours of America
and Europe and is continuing this policy both to gain international
experience and to further the good name of Cornish singing.
