Choral Fest Costa Rica Legacy Library
A documentary center dedicated to preserving official programs, peace choral repertoire, educational materials, testimonials, publications and resources created around Choral Fest Costa Rica.
The Legacy Library is the digital archive of Choral Fest Costa Rica for Peace and a resource for anyone looking for choral music resources, choir festival programs, and materials related to education, culture and peacebuilding.
Here you'll find historical documents, common songs, resources for choir directors, teaching materials, articles, interviews, N.I.T.O.S. projects, and audiovisual memory from the different editions.
The purpose isn't to store files in isolation, but to connect them to show how each resource is part of a larger story: voices from different countries learning to listen to one another and sing together.
