Concert on the eve of the parish day

 

For the third successive year Zbor sv. Nikolaja choir organized a concert on the eve of the parish day. On Saturday, May 9 2009, they performed in the parish church in Litija together with Nikolajev otroški zbor choir and Nikolajev mladinski zbor choir. Besides honouring and thanking the parish, this was also a charity concert. In collaboration with Jože Kos, a leader and coordinator of the project Orgle (The organ), contributions for the renovation of the organ in Polšnik, a nearby parish, were being collected.

The three choirs offered a wonderful programme for the audience. Klavdija Zupančič, her Nikolajev otroški zbor choir and their performance of a beautiful song Mojčina pesem was amazing. In their programme this song was accompanied by Marta and Črt Sojar Voglar on a piano. The youth with the conductor Urša Poglajen surpassed the expectations of the audience and Zbor sv. Nikolaja choir with Helena Fojkar Zupančič amazed the audience with a part of the programme they performed in the 10th international choral competition in Maribor a month before. One of the songs was Cloudburst by Whitacre, accompanied by Veronika Hauptman, piano, and Anže Maček, percussion instruments. The concert closed with all three choirs singing a work of John Rutter, Look at the world, with Katja Ložar at the piano.
