2022 Virtual Choir Competition China Results

Johan Rooze, Artistic Director of this event and INTERKULTUR, made a pertinent comment on the participating Chinese choirs in “On the way to the World Choir Games" 2022 Virtual Choir Competition China”:

“The curtain has fallen on China. Many Chinese choirs participated in the competition, involving 8 categories, and the singing level was generally high. There are many excellent choirs who have reached the level of participating in The Champions Competition of the World Choir Games held by the INTERKULTUR. This time, the six experienced international adjudicators had the difficult task of carefully watching and listening to all the videos and choosing the best choirs as the winner. The job is done, and soon you'll hear the results and which teams won. Many thanks to the choirs and their conductors for their excellent work and teaching rehearsals. Keep up the good work, the world needs people like you to make it a better place. Singers don't need lyrics, they know what ‘Together’ means. ‘Let the people of the world sing together’, we will see you soon somewhere in the world where we can enjoy each other singing and meet again ‘live’”!

After the end of the competition, we will release the videos of the winning choirs of the competition one after another on the official account and video account of "World Choir Games" to share with you the wonderful choir songs and the beauty of hearts transmitted by songs.

This choral video competition provides a good opportunity for choirs in the period of the pandemic to meet friends with songs, exchange and learn, and convey the power of peace and friendship through singing. We hope to unite with friends in the choral world, hand in hand to get out of the difficulties, and sing together for the bright future full of hope.
