International choir singing in Neuwied-Engers
from 8th to 14th September 2024
“We came as individual voices and left as a choir!”
In the State Music Academy of Rhineland-Palatinate, in the picturesque Engers Castle, located directly on the Rhine, 19 jumeleurs from 4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland) met with a choirmaster to sing together for a week and experience the Rhineland culture.
It was a premiere within Eurojumelages, a meeting just for singing. Everyone was willing to take part in the experiment: The jumeleurs with their different voices and the choirmaster who was to mould them into a melodious choir. The historic castle with its rehearsal rooms, guest rooms and Rhine terrace was the ideal location for this ambitious project.

2024: German language course in Constance
THE LOCATION
This year, the German federation invited us to a German language course at the Humboldt Institute in Constance located on the shores of Lake Constance. This is situated in the state of Baden-Württemberg, with its capital of Stuttgart.
The Lake Constance region benefits from a mild climate due to the ‘foehn’, a hot and dry wind coming from Italy. This phenomenon is much in evidence by the vegetation of the Island of Mainau, also called the Island of Flowers.
