The syllabus and entry forms for the Cork International Choral Festival 2010 are now online. There’s a range of categories to choose from and the competition brings together a fantastic mix of both national and international choirs every year.

You can download the syllabus here or read about my trip down to Cork for the 2009 festival earlier in the year. Really looking forward to going back in 2010!

In other choral news, the fabulous Gardiner Street Gospel Choir return to their usual slot of 7.30 at St. Francis Xavier’s Church on Gardiner St this coming Sunday the 13th – simply can’t wait

First brought to my attention by Darragh on Culch.ie, here’s a wonderful interpretation of Toto’s Africa by Perpetuum Jazzile which I think goes to show how awesome choral sounds can be. Happy weekend everyone.
