WORLD CHOIR GAMES Graz 2008

The 5th World Choir Games in Graz 2008 are well on the way to becoming the largest competition in the history of choir music. Until now about 400 ensembles from 90 nations have registered already. The large number of participating choirs is complemented by folk dance groups and brass music bands which are going to turn this event into a unique festival of different cultures.

According to the status quo Russia, Germany and China are going to delegate most of the participating choirs – more than 100 of them altogether, followed closely by Austria, Hungary and South Africa which will be present with nearly 80 choirs. This shows that our slogan “Singing together brings nations together” will be celebrated impressively in Graz in July.

The choirs are going to demonstrate their abilities to the approximately 75 international jurors in more than 500 performances in 28 different categories. More than 1.000 concerts in Graz and vicinity will140 performances in categories concerning children and youth choirs reflect this fact. But also the categories Folklore, Musica Sacra, Popular Choir Music as well as Gospel and Spiritual enjoy great popularity so that we are looking forward to another 220 performances. take place, including friendship-, gala- and special-concerts. Two-thirds of the participants at this event again are going to be children, teenager and young adults.
