This will be Chor-Farmers 21st visit to Cowra.
They have performed in Cowra every two years for the past 42 years.
The Choir founded in 1967 is made up of Students and Graduates of the Tokyo University of Agriculture under the guidance of founder and Conductor Hiroshi Masumoto.
Choir Members are billeted out with Cowra families, many of whom have hosted from the very first tour.
Masumoto is a composer, and all repertoires of Chor-Farmer are his arrangements. He has a profound knowledge of a genre to be wide to world folk songs and popular music as well as classical music including Schubert.
And he gives rich music characteristics to Chor-Farmer.
He shows the superior ability for various creation activity for the choir with a computer, making music scores and CDs, and editing of publicity booklet of the choir.
