Can you help? - We are a children’s choir from Granollers (Barcelona) CATALUNYA, Spain. We are 40 voices from 11 to 17 years old. We travel every year and we are thinking in visit somewhere in U.K next july 2008. We were wondering if you can help us in find some festival, or maybe some choir like us who wants to make one exchange. Maybe the best will be to mix up the two possibilities. Thank you very much, and please sorry for my English!! Yours Josep Vila Jover |

HOSTS needed for HUNGARIAN CHOIR TOUR The Aurin Girls’ Choir from the Kodály Music School, Kecskemét, Hungary will be making their 5th tour to the UK in June/July 2008. This choir is one of the leading girls’ choirs in Europe; in 2006 they won two gold medals at the World Choir Games in China where they represented Hungary. They have won first prizes at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod and in Germany, Italy, Denmark and Hungary, as well as many other accolades in music festivals across Europe. On previous visits to the UK they have given successful concerts in cathedrals, churches and schools, in Scotland, Yorkshire, Liverpool and many other places across the country. They have also given workshops in a number of schools, colleges and universities demonstrating the Kodály method of music teaching and the highly intensive choral training they receive. Under the direction of their young conductor, László Durányik, the choir has provided an extremely stimulating and enjoyable experience for everyone, on their previous tours. At present I am looking for some new hosts schools, colleges, church or community groups who might be interested in hosting the choir in 2008. (46 girls, ages 15 – 19 approx, plus staff) This would include providing hospitality (beds etc) for the choir for one or more nights and they would give concerts/workshops etc as outlined above. I would also like to hear from anyone who has hosted them on previous occasions and would like to have them again. Please contact Barbara Jenkinson 01749 812708 or by email b.jenkinson@ukonline.co.uk for more details and informal discussion. |

Dear friends, We are looking for a choir to change hospitality. We are going to organize a "review" in our wonderful theatre ( "dove siamo" - http://www.coralesancassiano.it) on April 2008. Would you like to be invited as guests to change hospitality in the future? We could offer accommodation for the week end. To reach us is very easy because we have an airport very close which have flight low cost by Ryanair or Evolavia (unfortunately we can’t offer the cost of flight!!!) (the airport Ancona is 7 km from here).

Dear Sirs, I am the conductor of an Italian vocal ensemble, "Il Convitto Armonico", formed by young specialized singers. The choir gives regular concerts home and abroad, and has published a compact disc with music by Marc'Antonio Inegneri for Tactus label. We wish to establish a relationship with an English college choir, possibly of Cambridge or Oxford, in order to exchange concert experiences in our different countries, with mutual hospitality. We hereby enclose our curriculum vitae; we can also send a free copy of our cd if the interested choir requires it. I hope we find an interesting way of developing relationships, and I remain
Very truly yours Stefano Buschini Director of Music Vocal ensemble "Il Convitto Armonico"
