CORK INTERNATIONAL CHORAL FESTIVAL 1954-2004 ‘A CELEBRATION’

Edited by Ruth Fleischmann

Over the past number of years we have endeavoured to create a record of the Cork International Choral Festival, both written and acoustic. In 2004 Ruth Fleischmann launched her book Cork International Choral Festival 1954 – 2004: A Celebration, which documents the history of the Festival. In the book over 200 people, including directors, administrators, adjudicators, composers, choristers (national and international), critics and voluntary organisers write about their involvement in the Festival. Copies of Ruth Fleischmann’s book are available from Maeve Fleischmann c/o Cork School of Music, Union Quay, Cork (Tel: 021 4270076).

 

Over the past 50 years the Cork International Choral Festival has won international standing and a special place in the esteem and affection of the hundreds of Irish choirs, big and small, that have regularly taken part in it. From the beginning it has been supported by the City and County Councils, by Cork companies, media, institutions, and by the public.In this book, over 200 people write about their involvement in the Festival: directors, administrators, adjudicators, composers commissioned to write new works, choristers from our islands and many parts of continental Europe, critics, patrons, sponsors, the voluntary organisers and members of the public.The appendices record the names and achievements of participants. All 3,321 choir visits are documented, including the choir conductors and competitions entered. Irish choirs (adult and school) as well as foreign choirs are listed alphabetically. First and second prizewinners of all competitions are recorded; so are the set pieces, and the competition rules as they have evolved down the decades. The 144 dance teams and the 145 adjudicators are named, as are the commissioned composers and their 119 works; the opening and closing ceremonies are chronicled. The Festival directors, administrators and the 680 voluntary workers are listed, some of whom have given up to 50 years of unbroken service to this unique Festival.
