Singers here is your chance to embark on a Musical Journey Through Spanish and Latin American Traditions

Calling all singers! Register now for an extraordinary choral adventure exploring the vibrant musical connections between Spain and South America. This concert offers a unique opportunity to master Ariel Ramírez's celebrated 'Misa Criolla' – an exciting and rewarding work that blends sacred texts with indigenous Andean rhythms and harmonies.

Swoon to the crystalline polyphony of Renaissance master Tomás Luis de Victoria, whose motets represent the pinnacle of Spanish sacred music. Then dive into the infectious rhythms and harmonies of South American folk traditions, from the soulful 'Mata del Anima Sola' to the passionate intensity of Astor Piazzolla’s 'Libertango.' Dancing is NOT required!

This program offers singers a chance to expand their vocal techniques and Spanish language skills (much easier than German!). Whether you're drawn to Renaissance purity or Latin American rhythmic vitality, this musical journey promises to be both educational and joyful.

Register today to secure your place!
