The region Fundão invited the international singers to five different meeting in music Friendship Concerts, to honor their efforts in preparation for the event and for travelling despite the instability that troubles our world today!
One of the great choirs was really stunning, sang in 2 different categories: Folklore and Gospel/Pop/Modern. The British School in Colombo Choir from Sri Lanka directed by Shamistha De Silva was two times category winner and also won the Grand Prize of Beira Interior. Congratulation in this way too!
