Στόχος του φεστιβάλ είναι να συμβάλει στην ανάπτυξη των πολιτιστικών ιδεωδών, στην καλλιέργεια υψηλών σχέσεων και ισχυρών δεσμών φιλίας μεταξύ ανθρώπων, φορέων και λαών, καθώς και στη συνεργασία τους μέσω της μουσικής που είναι η αμεσότερη μορφή τέχνης. Θα συμμετάσχουν χορωδίες μικτές, ανδρικές, γυναικείες, εφηβικές, παιδικές από την Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό. Η επιλογή των διοργανωτών για υποχρεωτική παρουσίαση συγκεκριμένων ειδών μουσικής είναι συνειδητή, καθώς ένας από τους στόχους που έχει θέσει η Πολιτιστική Λέσχη Προσωπικού ΟΤΕ Θεσσαλονίκης για το φεστιβάλ είναι η συμβολή του στη διατήρηση και διάδοση του μουσικού πλούτου της πατρίδας μας και άλλων χωρών./The 31st International Choir festival of Ote-Aristoteles Concert Hall,Thessaloniki,Greece  less

Pokarekare Ana was originally written in 1912 as a bid to win The heart of Paraire Henare Tomoana's beloved, Kuini Ripeka Ryland. Paraire had Fallen in love with Kuini but her family refused to give Their blessing to a marriage between The two. A lovelorn Paraire composed Pokarekare Ana in which he vowed his eternal love. He declared this passion by singing Pokarekare Ana at Te Poho-o-Rawiri Marae to Kuini in front of her Ngati Porou elders. The family was won over by his convincing performance and granted him Their daughter's hand. How placid are The ripples of restless Waiapu, Dear They know of your returning, from far across The sea. Dear Heart of mine, I'll wait for Thee, My love is thine alone, to eternity. This outdoor performance was The culmination of a six-week project which creates a choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gaThers a random bunch of singers from in and around Ipswich. There are no auditions and all s...    less

Here, our lovely singers have made it into a conversation – a shared experienced between The women. It’s been beautifully arranged by Moira Smiley and Vida, but was written by John Prine, a Chicago folk musician. There are two new singers in this ensemble: Rosi, a deep dark bass, standing back left, and Marie, sitting at The front right with The cowboy hat on. Both singers have been a wonderful addition to our choir. Adele in The rocking chair, Annabelle standing right, and KaTherine with baby Erin (who LOVES harmony!) complete The group, all of which you have seen many times in concert! We love The song and hope you do too. With this song, we are raising money for a charity close to our hearts, Dartmoor Search and Rescue Ashburton. Throughout both lockdowns They have had a huge number of call outs, as more people have been exploring The moors and getting into difficulties. As...    less
