Costa Rica - Spring - 2013 Choral Festival with Joshua Habermann from $2095*

KIconcerts is proud to announce that Joshua Habermann will be leading the 2013 festival in Costa Rica which will be held from April 1, 2013.


A renowned clinician, festival leader and music educator, Joshua Habermann conducts the Dallas Symphony Chorus and is passionate about the music and culture of Latin America. In his words: 

I am excited to be leading the Spring into Costa Rica Festival. Costa Rica is truly a land of beauty and warmth, a culture rich in music and history, a people hospitable and welcoming. 

In addition to the option of performing individually and having exchange concerts; ensembles will have the opportunity to come together to sing in the festival choir. The slated repertoire for the festival choir is eclectic, and will include both American and Costa Rican pieces that have been specifically chosen to reflect the heritage of the singers, and the beauty of the Latin American culture we will experience. I hope you will join us in Costa Rica! 
Kind regards,

Joshua Habermann

Costa Rica is one of the most affordable 'closer to home' international destinations - with natural wonders, unique flora and fauna as well pristine beaches, stunning volcanic formations and commanding rain forests. There are numerous gateway cities from the US enabling the $2095 price to be offered to many - fuel surcharges and air travel related taxes are around $300 per person in addition.

London and Bristol - inviting youth choirs - June 2013

Jonathan Willcocks accepts invitation to
lead a KI festival in England!


I would be honored if you would consider touring England next year as we present individual and combined concert options for participating choirs. I will be conducting the combined choir in my composition of the Pied Piper of Hamlin in both Bristol and London.

England will be firmly in the mind of the world as London hosts the largest cultural and sporting program this year – the Summer Olympic Games. The Royal Wedding and the Queen's Jubilee anniversary, also this year, remind all of the joyous pomp and circumstance for which England is renowned.

In addition to our individual and combined gala performances will be the opportunity to perform alongside English choirs in shared concert settings. This is always the best way to get to know 'the locals'. You may want to extend your visit to Scotland or Wales, or perhaps explore Oxford, Windsor, Stratford on Avon and many other of our most charming destinations.

Full choirs and groups of singers are welcomed. Accompanying passengers are well looked after with parallel programs during rehearsals.

Please feel free to be in touch with me or Kevin Meidl about musical matters and with KIconcerts about the touring aspects of this unique festival opportunity.

I look forward to hosting you in England
