The fifth CantaRode International Choir Festival started Thursday May 30 and ended Sunday June 2. The final concert consisted of a thunderous performance of the Carmina Burana by an occasional choir of nearly 90 singers. They had begun to study the famous work in the morning and performed it in the afternoon under the leadership of the American top conductor Bray Allred.<\/p>\n
The prices were announced after the implementation of the Carmina Burana. After the prize from 1 to 9 (there were nine choirs that took part in the competition), a few extra prizes were also awarded.<\/p>\n
