This event, held in Wernigerode, Germany, from July 17 to 21, drew 44 choirs from 18 countries around the world who competed in categories such as carols, folk and contemporary.
Sol Art performed a choral harmony of three modified Vietnamese folk songs from the three regions Cong chieng Mo Nong, Lam mua and Hat hoi xuan hong, representing aspects of indigenous culture of the country. The group also took home the Audience Prize for its efforts.
This is the second time Sol Art has grasped gold at the competition, repeating its success in the 2011 event. The choir was founded in 2008 by artist Dang Chau Anh. It has members aged from 6 to 16 and has staged and competed in many competitions at home and abroad.
The festival is part of the Interkultur organization’s World Choir Games, which started in 1999.
