BOV hosts the BOV Joseph Calleja Children’s Choir

-

Bank of Valletta hosted a reception for the members of the BOV Joseph Calleja Children’s Choir. This year, the event was held at Xara Lodge l/o Rabat.

Though the youngest protagonis­ts to feature during the Maltese Tenor’s 20th Anniversar­y Concert, the choir members were a constant presence on stage accompanyi­ng Joseph Calleja and his special guests, including the internatio­nally-renowned Andrea Bocelli.

Soprano and Choir Director Gillian Zammit as well as Destiny Chukunyere were also present for the event. The children were each presented with a commemorat­ive photo of a special moment during the concert, complete in a specially designed folder for keepsake. Although the experience itself was a mem- orable one, this gesture was a token sign of appreciati­on by Bank of Valletta for the commitment shown by these children and their parents.

Although he could not be present in person on the day, due to other commitment­s, Joseph Calleja left the children a personalis­ed video message which was aired during the reception. Another message was left by Andrea Bocelli himself. Both artists congratula­ted the choir members for their sterling performanc­e during the concert, thanking them for their contributi­on.

The BOV Joseph Calleja Children’s Choir was founded by Joseph Calleja himself. Bank of Valletta has been supporting it for several years now, as part of its Corporate Responsibi­lity towards the worlds of performing arts and education.
