However, at the Medal Presentations on Thursday, August 3, the following achievements were announced: 1st Place Gold Medalists: Mélo'Men (a Medium Chorus) 2nd Place Silver Medalists: Ensemble Vocal Ganymède (a Large Chorus) 3rd Place Bronze Medalists: Mélo'Singers (a Large Chorus) Honorable Mention (no medals): Colla Voce (a Small Chorus) Under the award decisions as published, Ensemble Vocal Ganymède should have been awarded the gold medal for Large Chorus; Mélo'Singers the silver medal for Large Chorus; and Colla Voce the gold medal for Small Chorus. The participating groups were not apprised of the change in rules in advance (or at any time), and when asked for an explanation after the ceremony, the organizers said the cost of so many medals would have been too prohibitive.
