Chants from the Eastern Orthodox Canon.
The Musica Balkanica Choir was formed in Christchurch in 2004 by a group of Balkan enthusiasts to celebrate and share the rich musical heritage of the Balkan region of Eastern Europe.
The choir’s repertoire includes sacred songs from the Christian Orthodox liturgy, in Old Slavonic, as well as local folk songs in a variety of languages, including Bulgarian, Greek, Hungarian, Romanian and the Slavonic languages of former Yugoslavia.
Tonight they will share the beauty of chants and songs from Eastern Orthodox traditions. The sacred pieces (many from the Divine Liturgy), date from Byzantine times to last century.
Doors open at 6.30pm and entry is by Cash Koha/Donation.
