The Aurin Girls’ Choir has received yet another prestigious international invitation: in July 2025, the ensemble will represent Hungary at the World Choir Festival – Hong Kong, a world-class choral event.
This invitation is rooted in a long-standing professional relationship. László Durányik, who will serve as a jury member at the festival, has collaborated with the event’s organizers, including Prof. Leon Tong, on various international workshops and masterclasses over the years. This relationship was further strengthened in the summer of 2024, when the Good Hope School Choir – one of Hong Kong’s finest – gave a joint concert with the Aurin Girls’ Choir at the Kodály School in Kecskemét. As part of their European tour, the Hong Kong choir visited Hungary, resulting in an unforgettable evening of musical and personal connection between the two choirs.
The diverse program of the Hong Kong festival – including choir competitions, interactive workshops, masterclasses, and large-scale concerts – represents both an exciting challenge and a unique opportunity for the Aurin Girls’ Choir to once again demonstrate its artistic excellence on the international stage. The festival’s mission is to foster a global community of young singers united by a shared love of music and an appreciation of cultural diversity.
