World Choral Day 2018 – commemorating the 100th anniversary of the ending of WWI
Join choral ensembles around the globe in celebrating World Choral Day to show that “our choral family contributes through music to break down the artificial barriers of politics, ideologies, religions, and racial hatred that separate human beings” (Alberto Grau at the launch of IFCM’s World Choral Day, 1990). All choral ensembles are invited to register concerts/events that happen between November 11 and December 16 (Remembrance, Advent, Christmas, etc.). Choirs are encouraged to include the World Choral Day proclamation in concerts, use the logo in programs and advertising, and publicize their participation in World Choral Day through social media. Let’s have a massive worldwide presence on the World Choral Day website to demonstrate the choral belief that “choral singing, an integral part of our cultural experience, has the power to build communities and transform lives.”
Official magazine of the International Federation for Choral Music, the International Choral Magazine is published quarterly in the four official languages of IFCM: English, French, German and Spanish. It is distributed in more than 80 countries on the five continents and is the official voice of choral music around the world.
