The first event of 34th Chorfest, organized by the Fabio da Bologna Musical Association, will take place on June 7 at the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua in Bologna, in celebration of the saint’s feast day. Over the years, the event has taken various forms — from choral showcases to concerts for choir and orchestra or choir and organ. This year, it will feature performances by I Polifonici della Schola Cantorum, conducted by Alberto Bianchi, and the Coro Fabio da Bologna, directed by Alessandra Mazzanti, with Kim Fabbri on organ.
I Polifonici della Schola Cantorum is a mixed-voice ensemble founded in 2017 as an offshoot of the long-established Schola Cantorum San Cristoforo in Ozzano dell’Emilia, which has a history spanning over forty years. The concert will offer audiences a chance to experience the depth and diversity of sacred music, illustrating how composers from different eras and cultures have translated prayer and meditation into musical expression.
