Rimini welcomes once again the ‘City of Rimini International Choral Competition’ (RICC2015). Artistic Director of the Competition is Andrea Angelini.
The Choral music, especially in the last few years, has improved in quality, thanks to the precious contribution of thousands of supporters. It is no longer a music event for only a niche audience, but it has gained an important place in the musical field.
The aim of the Choral Competition is not only to have choirs competing against one another, but also to present to the audience the characteristics and diversities of each choir and its repertoire. The event will take place in the suggestive setting of the ancient Roman city, Rimini, well-known for the beauty of its beaches and rich in monuments from a splendid past.
