'Bangor Music Festival is a charitable organisation dedicated to presenting contemporary music performed by artists of the highest calibre and has a strong commitment to enrich and educate through workshops and concerts.' Held Mid February.
'The current research and teaching of ICSMuS are Christian in emphasis; but the centre’s scope allows for studies of music in other world religions. Similarly, the current emphasis is on Western music, liturgies and rituals; but it is intended to enlarge this and to engage with scholars and students from anthropology and sociology as well as theology and the arts.'
'Founded in 1921, Bangor University’s School of Music has a long tradition of academic excellence. Our courses are unique for the variety of options available. The choice of well over 100 modules allows you to select a pathway which enables you to develop your own interests and skills. Teaching is primarily carried out in small groups, providing a stimulating and supportive learning environment.'
'A vibrant Samba-Reggae Percussion band full of energy and uplifting spirit ... Batala Bangor started in 2003, the second UK Batala after Portsmouth, which had started the year before.'
'Has its roots in the slate quarrying village of Bethesda in the Ogwen Valley which lies on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park about 5 miles to the south east of the university city of Bangor ... When the choir was originally formed, most of the choir members were slate quarrymen, as a workforce of almost 3000 were employed at the quarry, but that number has now shrunk to under 200 and the choir has to draw its members these days from all walks of life including schoolteachers, local government officials, farmers and businessmen ... The Penrhyn Male Choir is one of the busiest choirs in Wales with around 30 concerts a year.'
The Choir dates back to the late 17th Century: ‘There are now on average twenty choristers chosen from local primary schools who can travel many miles to attend practice sessions and services. The men – now called lay clerks – come from many walks of life and their number is augmented in term time by students from the University ... The organ is the largest pipe organ in Wales and potentially one of the finest in the British Isles. It provides North Wales with an irreplaceable community asset. It is a splendid four-manual instrument and the majority of its 4,210 pipes were supplied in 1873 by one of the most famous organ building firms of the day, William Hill, with subsequent additions by the same company in 1897. It last received major attention in 1954 when it was re-built by John Compton ...’
‘A feast of music is in store as part of our artistic programme, from local and young talent to opera and classical music, as well as folk, world music and gigs. Bring your friends, and enjoy.’
