Complete Step 1 first to introduce your choir and director. Then submit the requested Step 2 requirements so the Festival Committee can evaluate and approve your choir.
Once accepted by the Festival Committee, the choir must confirm participation by paying an advance of 30% of the Base Program. The final confirmation date is March 15, 2027, or earlier if all places are filled. Applications are handled in the order received. There is still time to plan your journey with care.
Requirements for Festival Committee approval
Please provide the most realistic information available at this stage. Delegation size, rooming needs, travel dates, repertoire and special considerations can affect the proposal prepared for your choir.
Prepare the detailed information requested in Step 2
Use the actual Step 2 form as the controlling operational checklist. The areas below explain the type of information Step 2 is designed to collect.
Choir profile
- Official choir name and location
- Choir type and general profile
- Short choir biography
- Current choir photographs or media requested by the form
Director & delegation
- Director or authorized representative
- Estimated number of singers
- Age range where relevant
- Estimated accompanying travelers
- Rooming, accessibility or other group considerations requested by the form
Artistic & travel information
- Preliminary repertoire information
- Performance references or media requested by the form
- Expected travel dates or arrival/departure information when known

Do not invent or estimate details simply to complete the form. If something is not yet confirmed, provide the most accurate information available and identify it as preliminary where appropriate.
Review the Base Program before completing Step 2
The official Base Program 2027 is the canonical reference for the general participation framework, package conditions, responsibilities, inclusions, exclusions and confirmation conditions.
Step 2 collects the requested requirements and artistic materials for review and approval by the Festival Committee. Applications are handled in the order received until all places are filled.
After acceptance: confirm with a 30% advance
The Base Program 2027 explains the general participation framework. The written proposal issued for the choir defines the financial conditions, delegation details and confirmation steps that apply to that ensemble.
Why the written proposal matters
Delegation size, room occupancy, dates and requested services can affect the final proposal. Choir directors should rely on the official written proposal for their ensemble rather than on a generic payment table.
