Participation Opportunities

SING FOR GOLD invites all non-professional choirs of the world to participate in 7 different competition categories. The choirs will be evaluated by an international jury according to the MUSICA MUNDI evaluation system (30 points system) and receive gold, silver or bronze diplomas and medals.

The best choirs are invited to compete in a final round of competition for the WORLD CHORAL CUP.

Choirs who choose not to be placed in competition, but seek to be part of the international experience can participate in the non-competitive evaluation activities.

Destination

3,5 kilometers of sandy beach, its location directly at the Mediterranean Sea and its proximity to Barcelona make Calella a popular European destination. During the choral festival singers can wonderfully make music, stroll and relax in the contemplative old town with its Catalan and Mediterranean charm.
Since its 650 years of history Calella has developed from a small fishing village into a favoured resort of all nations and age groups. This mixture of modernity, hospitality and Catalan traditions add a special touch to Calella and thus make it an appealing travel destination.

Competition Results

We congratulate all singers to their great results! All in all 18 golden, 11 silver and 2 bronze diplomas were awarded. Many thanks to all choirs and ensembles for participating!
