Welsh choir
Celtic harmony group
A Welsh choir is a choral group from Wales, where group singing is a deeply rooted cultural tradition.
Wales is particularly known for its male voice choirs, which emerged from coal mining communities in the 19th century.
The phrase often connotes powerful harmonies and technical excellence: The Welsh choir brought the audience to tears.
