We had a wonderful time in Prague with many wonderful experiences and events. Thank you very much for your comprehensive organisation and for allowing us to be in your city for the Advent singing. Thanks and greetings once again to our friendly tour guide Jana. The trip will remain unforgettable for our choir. Some of us want to visit Prague again soon.

Munich Mass Choir, Germany

Advent Sing Prague 2023

Our choir spent 4 wonderful days in the Golden Tity on the Vltava. Everything was perfectly organised by music&friends. Our Czech guide Jana was a pearl and took excellent care of us. The performances and the accompanying program as well as the accommodation were to our complete satisfaction. Above all, the performance in St Nicholas' Church in front of a large audience was a "goose-bump experience"! The price of the trip was also very attractive. We can highly recommend "music&friends" and would be happy to return ourselves!

Dear Marie, we did not have enough time to say goodbye, but I must thank you on behalf of the choir for the wonderful, unforgettable experience you gave us; for me and I think also on behalf of all the singers, I must say that these four days spent at least as much as a whole week.

The boys' band and their coaches returned safely and full of good impressions from Croatia last weekend.

Concert Tour Croatia 2022

Thank you for everything, this experience is unforgettable for us. My wives were delighted with the beautiful hotel, the concerts and monuments, as well as very satisfied with Janka as a tour guide. An unforgettable experience was having dinner and singing together in the harbor, further Gaudi's crypt and also Montserrat. We appreciate it and thank you for the organisation. We firmly believe that we will return to Barcelona. We thank you for the photos and wait for the rest.

Vokálny zbor ENTHEA, Slovakia

Cantate Catalunya 2022

Without exception, all participants enjoyed the excursion very much. Apart from the realisation that Prague is a great city with countless sights, it was emphasised again and again how well everything was organised on site and how smoothly everything worked out. Be it your reception at the hotel, the transport of the instruments to the church and back, the organisation around the concert or the nice and competent support by Jana during the whole two days. We were also very satisfied with our concert, which also had to do with the fact that the external circumstances were so pleasant.

Volkschor Ingersleben, Germany

Cantate Dresden 2022

Singing together - we were also able to experience this during our ninth choir tour. We had fulfilling and touching moments with singers of other nationalities - encounters that once again gave us wings. The choir, which is "pulled together" after this tour, takes a long time to live from these experiences. We do not want to miss our choir tours, their motivation is incredible. Thanks, "music&friends", for the perfect organization!

Our choir Boni Discipuli participated in the International Festival Cantate Dresden for the first time this year. It was a great honor and an extraordinary experience for us. The festive atmosphere, the attentive audience and the perfect organization impressed us a lot. The city of Dresden showed us the best, also with the help of our interpreter. We would like to thank you for your perfect cooperation and support. The festival became the highlight of the year for us.

Many, many thanks for the nice time in Prague, and the wonderful event! We in the choir all appreciated the help we got before arriving in Prague - about the program, Prague and practical questions! And we also got the detailed program, specially tailored for our choir, which we greatly appreciated. (Thanks for the many work of you!) It was really well organized! It was nice to connect with other choirs from different countries across all borders. We like to come back to a future event.

Ladies Choir Oslo, Norway

Advent Sing Prag 2013

... that we more than 30 singers will keep the choir tour to Cantate Carlsbad for a long time in the best, beautiful memory! This was a very exciting, interesting choir tour for all of us, because everything was unknown to most of us, new territory! Czech Republic, the historically very interesting Carlsbad, Marienbad, the great choir performances, the nice contacts with the other, participating choirs, everything worked out great!

Männerchor Eintracht Emmenbrücke, Switzerland

Cantate Carlsbad 2015

Thank you for a very pleasant choir festival in Amsterdam. We all had a great time. As always, the basic organization was good, like hotel, food, concerts, excursions etc, which is very important. You and your team can be congratulated for the good and efficient work. The farewell dinner was very good in terms of food and the fun atmosphere. We were there the first and the last - what else could one say to that? The accordion player was excellent in supporting the singing of the choirs. He worked hard, please forward our appreciation to him. Our Swedish-speaking tour guide and the bus driver did their jobs very well.

Cantate Amsterdam 2015

On behalf of the Carrigaline Singers and as one of the organisers, I would like to thank music&friends for a very successful trip to Barcelona for Cantate Catalunya 2019. This was our second trip with music&friends (2016 Amsterdam) and this trip was equally enjoyable. There were very large protests in Barcelona that weekend and you were extremely professional in the way you organised the concerts and kept us safe at all times, while enabling us to perform in the beautiful surroundings of the beautiful church on Tibidabo mountain and in the crypt of Sagrada Familia, which will be an unforgettable experience for the whole choir. Our hotel was excellent. Thank you again, and hopefully we can organise another trip in the future!

Koncert tour Europe

Nevertheless, for our choir two 12-hour bus drives from Thun/Bern to Dresden and back were a great experience ... Ti visit all these cultural highlights including the Meissen-manufactory on the two days, was an exceptional travel program of high quality, enriched by the singing performance in the Frauenkirche and the two concerts. Truly a 5-star program. All choir members and fellow travelers were thrilled and thoroughly enjoyed the days ...

Many thanks for a trip to another star, so we all felt it, also thanks to the bright blue sky. The guided tours with the very sympathetic and competent tour guide were entertaining and interesting, the hotel left nothing to be desired and the meetings with the choirs and the performances themselves were a pleasure that caused goosebumps. Wonderful music with nice people. It was just beautiful. Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience that we will all enjoy and dream for a very long time.

The trip to Munich was successful. We had a lot of fun and the tour guides did a good job ... There will be some things we will tell in a few years ...
