FESTIVAL NEWS

ICFOJ

After an absence of three years we are delighted to bring you our first newsletter regarding the forthcoming Moore Stephens International Choir Festival of Jersey 2011.

Firstly we must thank our new sponsor, Moore Stephens, for its generous sponsorship of the festival. It is an international firm with a truly international reputation and we are delighted that, to date, we have choirs coming from England, Ireland, Sweden, Holland, Slovenia, Guernsey and Jersey.

Once again The Jersey Arts Trust has also assisted us to ensure that the festival is a careful programme of events which allows the choirs to sing as much as possible while having time to tour around Jersey and learn a little about our Island.

Please click here to learn more about the visiting choirs, the jury and the festival diary. If you would like to volunteer to help run the festival as a guide, a steward or in many other ways, please contact either of us:
