]In summer 2016, at the invitation of CIOFF Portugal, we were the first German group to take part in the FOLKFARO International Folklore Festival in Faro/Portugal from 19 to 29 August 2016 with 28 ensemble members. Groups from six other countries also took part: Brazil, France, Georgia, Kenya, the Philippines and Portugal. The artistic level of all participating groups was very high and our diverse German folklore repertoire was perceived as an enriching contrast. A successful and important cultural exchange!
Successful festival participation in Faro/Portugal!
