What is FESTIVAL 500?

FESTIVAL 500 Sharing the Voices is a celebrated international non-competitive festival of choral music that takes place in the intimate setting of North America’s oldest city, St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. This heralded choral festival and academic symposium bring together singers, conductors and scholars from cultures worldwide. Here they participate in the very best of the world’s musical artistry and scholarship. Infused with a joyful spirit, this sharing of voices results in powerful and enriching experiences for all involved.

FESTIVAL 500 traditionally shines a light on the music of a particular culture and features it in a special way. In 2007 FESTIVAL 500 celebrates Celtic influence in choral music.

FESTIVAL 500 Sharing the Voices is a non-profit organization that is governed by a Board of Directors.
