After a fantastic Competition, the Permonik Choir from the Czech Republic took the first Prize with a cheque for £750, Golden Nightingale Statue and Gold Diploma.
This Youth Choir wowed the audience with their performance and all the Jury members [from Italy, Spain and the UK] had them in first place.
In joint second place were the Rello Choir from Estonia and the Technik Choir from Poland, with the Lira Boys Choir gaining the Bronze diploma.
In the Barbershop section, The Great Western Chorus took first place.
