⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – “[BrightonGMC] are a powerful choir, huge in number and capable of delivering the sort of massive sound that one might expect from a Welsh male voice ensemble. Last night that sound was there for sure but there was also something that I have occasionally found lacking and that is balance, a sense of dynamics that comes from being as precise in the quieter moments as they are when belting out a big popular number.” – thelatest.co.uk
