| Festival Description | The 2007 edition of Cantus Salisburgensis was a wonderful atmosphere. The three Carl Orff pieces (O Fortuna, Ecce Gratum and Floret Silva Nobilis) were such a great successes that the organizers decided to keep these pieces as compulsory pieces for the 2008 edition. Also the mass was a great success—it went very smoothly as Prof. Janos Czifra, the cathedral music director, conducted the mass and every participating group sang one individual piece. The choirs received enthusiastic applause from the audience of 2000 people in the cathedral. The participating Choirs in 2007 included—Les petits chanteures de Ste. Jeanne d`Arc (France); Oikumenia-Gospel-Chor Salzburg (Austria); Students Philharmonic of China Conservatory (China); Palatine Children´s Chorus Concert Choir (USA); Ensemble a Vents d´Ottowa (Canada); Experimental High School Beijing(China); Municipality of RHodes Exmperimental Choir (Greece); and Choir Lukash (Ukraine). |
