Premiere of the new World Choir Games<br />

Anthem: “One Voice”, composed by the<br />

world famous John Rutter, British composer<br />

of choral music and Honorary Artistic<br />

President of INTERKULTUR.<br />

The opening of the World Choir Games<br />

marks the beginning of an exciting journey<br />

for thousands of singers from numerous<br />

nations. They will look back on months of<br />

intensive and hard work, and will be anxious<br />

to see the start of the World Choir Games in<br />

<strong>Tshwane</strong>, the place where the world meets<br />

to engage in a peaceful competition of<br />

choirs and nations from around the globe.<br />

When the flag of the World Choirs Games<br />

is raised in a solemn ceremony, this act<br />

is associated to one of the fundamental<br />

ideas of the Choir Olympics event, namely<br />

“participation is the highest honor”.<br />

As a prelude to their upcoming Choir<br />

Olympic adventure all participants will be<br />

warmly welcomed by the host city and<br />

country in the Opening Ceremony: South<br />

Africa is going to present itself by staging<br />

a great and flamboyant performance and<br />

showcase the richness and variety of the<br />

South African culture.<br />

We welcome the world to the continent,<br />

which gave the world rhythm,<br />

singing, and dancing!
