During the week of the 11th World Symposium on Choral Music in Barcelona, more than 3000 conductors, singers, and other choir professionals will meet in Barcelona on July 22 to 29, 2017.

 

The Symposium will take place entirely on the grounds of the Barcelona Auditori and surroundings (ESMUC and UPF Ciutadella)

 

The CHORAL EXPO will be situated in the foyer of the Auditori that will be visited by most delegates on a daily basis.

 

We offer you a unique opportunity to get acquainted with our guests in surroundings that will easily match the quality of your goods or services.
