Featured guest Choir
Coral Allegro ONCE Valencia
Coral Allegro ONCE Valencia has been a pioneer for over 35 years in the field of inclusion through music education in Spain. Today, 50% of its members are ONCE members (an organization with a system of services that emphasizes rehabilitation as the means for blind people to overcome the obstacles posed by this disability). The choir has been presented at numerous conferences and seminars, receiving critical acclaim not only for its music but also for its methodology, outreach, and work plan. This has motivated their national and international participation as a guest group in numerous conferences, festivals, and workshops.
