The sixth CD recording by the Cambrian Youth Choir was officially unveiled by Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale at a launch ceremony held at the Cambrian Centre on Friday, 20 November.
"Ruby Seasons" was recorded by past and present Cambrian Youth Choir members to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Youth Choir by Blodwyn Whitehead in 1969.
Mrs Whirehead conducted and directed the choir from 1969 to 1996 and provided the foundation of Welsh musical culture and world-renowned reputation that is still with the choir today.
