International Federation for Choral Music
Overview
The International Federation for Choral Music (IFCM) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and fostering the global community of choral music. Founded in 1982 in Namur, Belgium, it serves as a key platform for facilitating communication and exchange among choral musicians worldwide[1][2]. The IFCM aims to unite people through music, transcending cultural, political, and religious differences[1].
Mission and Goals
The IFCM seeks to strengthen cooperation among national and international organizations and individuals involved in all aspects of choral music[2]. Its goals include:
- Encouraging the formation of choral organizations.
- Promoting international exchange programs for choirs, conductors, composers, and students.
- Coordinating and promoting choral festivals, seminars, competitions, and meetings.
- Facilitating the dissemination of choral repertoire, research, recordings, and other relevant materials.
- Encouraging the inclusion of choral music in general education[2].
Activities and Publications
The IFCM publishes the International Choral Magazine, which is distributed in over 80 countries across five continents. The magazine serves as the official voice of choral music globally, though its publication has been temporarily suspended[3].
International Relations
The IFCM is a member of the International Music Council (IMC) and the European Music Council (EMC). It also maintains links with organizations like A Coeur Joie International, European Choral Association - Europa Cantat, and Jeunesses Musicales International (JMI)[2]. These partnerships enhance its ability to promote choral music internationally.
Significance
As a major advocate for choral music, the IFCM plays a crucial role in recognizing that there are possibly more people engaged in choral activities than in any other group artistic activity[1]. This highlights the importance of choral music as a powerful unifying force worldwide[1].

Episode 6 is out now on Spotify and YouTube! Lim Ai Hooi is a recognised and respected conductor and educator in Singapore’s choral scene. Ai Hooi graduated in 1989 from the Royal College of Music, London, majoring in Piano and Voice. Over the past 30 years, Ai Hooi has led her school choirs to achieve top honours at numerous renowned international competitions. In 2009, she founded ONE Chamber Choir. Since then, the choir has triumphed at competitions in Philippines, Wales, Hungary, Germany and South Africa, including achieving Champion of the World Choir Games in 2018. Despite her success in competitions, that is not a fundamental part of her education philosophy. Ai Hooi’s philosophy for choral music and teaching stems from her view that a fulfilling musical journey is one that is filled with sincerity, love and excellence. She uses the creation of music as a platform to share and infuse her values and beliefs in her singers and inspires them to use the beauty of music to craft experiences that touch the hearts of the audience. Ai Hooi also co-founded Sourcewerkz PL to further her calling to teach, touch and transform the larger choral community and its audience. The choral festivals and workshops by Sourcewerkz have reached out to many choristers around the world, proving that music is indeed, without borders.
