Exchange

This is why each year around 53 members of our choir go on an exchange trip with a foreign choir, and we receive the other choir the same year .

The principle is that both choirs are host and guest of each other in turn. We stay with families - the choir members'family who provide food and bed - and we do the same when they come over.

Our objective is to give our students the opportunity to know and appreciate another culture , another way of practising the music, and to create bonds ...

 

These past years we went to Taranto, Moscow, Budapest, Denver, Quebec, Tornio, Portsmouth-USA, Prag, Vienna, Biatorbagy, Grottaglie ...
 
and each time we hosted the foreign choir as well, except the Denver choir who was already touring Europe that year.
