European Choral music from 6 centuries and 7 countries
Europe should be a unity of diversity - musically, it has been for a long time. With the program "European Choral Music from 6 Centuries", the Camerata Carolina demonstrates this in their concert on Sunday, 30 June 2024 in the Peterskirche Heidelberg.
The works presented range from Gregorian chant to the 21st century. Well-known names - Bach, Bellini, Fauré, Soler, Stanford, Verdi - are represented with impressive compositions, but we have also selected lesser-known gems. The most recent work is Valentin Silvestrov's "Prayer for Ukraine" for twelve-part choir, which he wrote in 2014 to mark the uprising on Maidan Square in Kijiv. We consciously include this brave country in European music. The Camerata intensively cultivates the high art of a cappella singing and is regularly praised by audiences and the press for its transparent and warm choral sound. It will continue its frequent travels this year: it will present this program in Italy (Liguria) and France (Montpellier).
Tickets for our concert in Heidelberg are available at 20 (numbered seats) and 15 € - reduced 13 and 8 € - at Dürninger (formerly Zigarren Grimm), Sofienstraße 11, Tel.: 06221 / 209090, from 7pm at the box office or online via this link. We look forward to seeing you there.
