From The BBC-More than 400 people saw Cherry Vann become only the 11th person to hold the position, since the diocese was formed in 1921.
The 60-year-old former Archdeacon of Rochdale replaces the Right Reverend Richard Pain who retired last year.
The Rev Robert Lawrence said Bishop Vann could be a "point of unity" at a time of disunity within the church.
A piano and violin graduate at the Royal College of Music, Bishop Vann has spent the last 11 years in the diocese of Manchester.
She previously said the challenges facing churches in south east Wales were similar to those in the north west of England.
