“We are delighted that with the significant cooperation of the performance venues and our travel partners we have been able to reschedule this tour for these dates in 2022,” said Choir president Ron Jarrett. “We will still be able to realise the original concept for the tour to visit Wales and other areas with heritage to the Choir whose first members were early converts to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with musical talents from these locations.”
