The Cork International Choral Festival 2016.
SING FOR YOUR LIFE! CHOIR (from Hobart,Tasmania, Australia). The choir performed on The Grand Parade, Cork prior to their free choral trail performance in Cork City Library on Friday afternoon. Sixty-three of a total of one hundred and twenty choir members made the trip to Cork. A (total) travelling party of approximately eighty travelled 18,000km, over twenty four flight hours, to appear at the Festival. The choir had previously never travelled outside Tasmania, and described the festival as a unique festival for its welcome and involvement of non-competitive choirs.
