Vocal music in Dubrovnik is expressed by two amateur choir groups. The older and larger group is the MIXED CHOIR "LIBERTAS", established in 1980. Entering its twenty-first year of successful activities, the choir has eighty members of various professions.
The choir members like to say how they are an amateur choir that works professionally, for they have given two hundred and fifty performances over the years, working exclusively with an orchestra. During recent years, they have been showing a predisposition for "a capella" singing. This type of musical vocalness is the trademark of the younger DUBROVNIK CHOIR OF CHAMBER MUSIC. The quality and reaches of this young musical choir have earned it a permanent position in the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. It has also won a number of prestigious awards at choir contests. The top performances given by the forty, exceptionally young, choir members are proof of why they are so successful - they truly love vocal music. Their repertoire includes the works of old masters, as well as compositions by renowned Croatian and foreign composers of the 20th century. |
