Paralia, Greece
The International choir festival "Music & Sea" takes place annually in the middle of September in the beautiful village of Paralia, Greece. Paralia is a touristic seaside village situated on the west coast of the Thermaic Gulf and in the shadow of Olympus.
The Festival has two parts: competitive and non-competitive. However, the character and the main concept of both parts is joining music, vacation, friendship and fun. The idea of the Festival is to bring the music closer to the people and to present the music on the sTreets and the squares of Paralia, Olympic Beach and Katerini. All choir ensembles, regardless of the members’ gender and age can apply for participation at the Festival.

Vidi una porta, e Tre gradi di sotto
per gire ad essa, di color diversi,
e un portier ch' ancor non facea motto.
[I saw a portal, and three stairs beneath,
Diverse in colour, to go up to it,
And a gate-keeper, who yet spake no word]
Poi pinse l' uscio a la porta sacrata,
dicendo: "Intrate; ma facciovi accorti
che di fuor torna chi ' n dietro si guata"
[Then pushed the portals Of the sacred door,
Exclaiming: “Enter; but I give you warning
That forth returns whoever looks behind.”]
Io mi rivolsi attento al primo tuono,
e ' Te Deum laudamus' mi parea
udire in voce mista al dolce suono.
[At the first thunder-peal I turned attentive,
And _”Te Deum laudamus”_ seemed to hear
In voices mingled with sweet melody.] less
