Review: Meibion Elli fifth anniversary concert
Review: Meibion Elli at Greenfield Chapel, with special guests The Phil Harmonics and West End star Samuel Wyn-Morris. LLANELLI male voice choir Meibion Elli celebrated their fifth anniversary with a special concert staged at Greenfield Chapel in the town centre. Meibion Elli choir are growing in numbers under the direction of D Eifion Thomas and accompanist Aled Maddock. The anniversary concert proved to be a memorable and inspiring evening of fine choral singing, mixed in with superb solo performances. Meibion Elli’s growing reputation for musical excellence was underscored by a programme of various musical styles which appealed to the large audience in Greenfield Chapel. John Thomas, David Williams (Dai Llansaint) and Alan Owen were the choir’s three featured soloists. Special mention must be made of the choir’s inspirational blockbuster performance of the Finale to Act 3 of Verdi’s Nabucco (The Slaves’ Chorus), with John Thomas featuring in the role of Zachariah.
