St David's Day 2015 was a remarkable occasion for the Orchestra and Chorus as they were joined in St David's Hall by acclaimed Welsh baritone Bryn Terfel, to celebrate the music of Wales through song. Bryn performed some of the music closest to his heart with potential stars of the future, bringing a joyful "hwyl" to the festivities.
