Côr Digidol Rhys Meirion
Set up in the early days of the initial Covid-19 lockdown by folk singer Catrin Angharad Jones, the social media page Côr-ona offered a platform for self-isolaters to post videos of themselves singing. Tenor Rhys Meirion took the idea one step further and invited people to form a choir and record a new arrangement of Calon Lân (Pure Heart), a well-known Welsh melody which has been heard ringing from the terraces of many a sports stadium. Videos poured in from all over the world and culminated in a heart-rendig performance with over a 100 voices singing in 4-part harmony.
