Everything is ready for the traditional Christmas event conceived by the Schola Cantorum Officium Cultural Association of S. Andrea Apostolo dello Jonio (CZ), this year organised with the contribution of the Confraternity of the Holy Rosary and the collaboration of the Parish of Saints Peter and Paul.
The event, which has been held punctually for more than 20 years (in fact, the first edition dates back to 2001), will be held on Wednesday, 27 December 2023, starting at 6 pm, at the Mother Church of Saints Peter and Paul, in the city centre. The event, which over the years has featured numerous choirs and international guests, thanks also to the contribution of the Region of Calabria through the PAC Calabria funds, this year will feature:
The evening's programme, curated meticulously by Christian Cosentino, the event's artistic director, includes performances of Christmas songs from the cultures of various peoples. In fact, the most beautiful Christmas songs will be performed, from the best known carols to songs from the Anglo-American tradition, without neglecting popular songs in the vernacular.
The concert is open to the public and can also be followed in streaming at https://www.facebook.com/scholacantorumofficium
At a time of wars, divisions and disintegration, the Schola Cantorum Officium, together with the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary and the Parish of Saints Peter and Paul, wants to offer a festive moment of serenity and togetherness through the beauty and spirituality of Christmas choral music.
