Brian CefaiABOUT NEW HAMPSHIRE FRIENDSHIP CHORUSThe New Hampshire Friendship Chorus' (NHFC) mission is to foster international friendship, understanding, and goodwill by sponsoring concert tours to other countries. Singers of all ages, genders, belief systems, and ethnicities eagerly participate, seeking areas of the world that have fewer opportunities to meet choirs from the United States. We encourage collaboration and participation through joint concerts with local groups, and we endeavor to engage through informal gatherings with other singers and audience members alike.The Friendship Chorus was the vision of Philip Wei, co-founder and long-time president of the Chorus. Originally created for a single tour to China in 1988, the Friendship Chorus continues to provide opportunities to share music, friendship, and culture with people from around the world. Since its inception in 1988, the Friendship Chorus has performed worldwide in concert tours to Australia, Austria, Armenia, Bolivia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Columbia, Croatia, Cuba, Czech Republic, Ecuador, Estonia, Georgia, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Korea, Latvia, Montenegro, Morocco, New Zealand, Peru, Poland, Russia, Slovenia, South Africa, Turkey, and Vietnam. This marks NHFC’s first visit to both Malta and Sicily.To learn more about the NHFC, visit https://www.nhfriendshipchorus.org/.DR.
