Chamber Choir "Ars
Cantata" is an amateur choir founded in 1986 at the Warsaw
Club of Catholic Intelligentsia (KIK). We are an autonomous section of
the Club. Like every section we follow the rules (Polish only) which
put our activities in more
formalized frames.
Mainly young people are members of the choir: students,
graduates of many Warsaw universities, but also people without academic
background. The name of our choir explains that we are keen on people
interested in The Art of Singing.
We help them to develop their passion.
The choir is involved in music activities in Warsaw. We are a
member of the Mazovian Branch of Polish
Union of Choirs and Orchestras (PZChiO).
We are glad to sing both church and secular music. In our portfolio
one can find pieces of Polish and European Renaissance, Baroque,
music of Polish an American contemporary
composers, as well as few
folk-based
pieces. We perform also gospel music and choir versions of
pop music.
Very often members
of the choir get together to venture various
expeditions.
Every year we meet on 9-days' camp during
vacation and two
weekend camps in Srodborow
near Otwock. We work there but also have a lot
of fun together.
