THE ESZTERHÁZY CHOIR AT THE 13TH EDITION OF THE UNIVERSITAS CANTAT CHOIR FESTIVAL, POZNAN (POLAND)
Our choir, led by Dr. Sándor Kabdebó, was invited to take part at the international choir festival between May 17-20 (2017), organised by the Adam Mickiewicz University of Poznan.
The participating choirs were offered performing opportunities also outside the Festival program. As such, our first concert was held at the City Music School of Wagrowice, near Poznan.
The so-called Festival concerts took place in the Auditorium of the University of Poznan. These concerts featured 3-4 choirs, each performing a program of cca. 20 minutes.
Besides the concerts, we participated at the great "all-choirs" reharsals, in order to learn the oratoric piece especially written for this event by Polish composer Milosz Bembinow, entitled Amor et Psyche.
The closure concert , all the musical efforts of the participating choirs culminated in performing the large scale work. Besides the vocal part, the performance was accompanied by orchestra and big band.
