Voces8 concert

Concerto dei Voces8

On Friday, 20 June 2025 at 8pm, a choral concert by the British vocal group VOCES8 will take place on Sveta Gora, as the first of three major cross-border events in the framework of the Interreg project BeWoP.

On Friday, June 20, 2025, at 8:00 PM, a choral concert by the ensemble VOCES8 will take place as part of the project Beyond Walk of Peace: From Crossborder Historical Research and Cultural Heritage to European Trail and Stories.

Following numerous performances in some of the world’s most prestigious concert halls – including Wigmore Hall, Royal Albert Hall, Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, Berlin Philharmonie, Cité de la Musique in Paris, Vienna’s Konzerthaus, Tokyo Opera City, the NCPA in Beijing, the Sydney Opera House, and many others – the British vocal group will perform in the ancient basilica on Sveta Gora. 

Celebrating its 20th anniversary this season, VOCES8 will bring to Sveta Gora its rich repertoire, ranging from Renaissance to contemporary music, featuring both classical and non-classical composers from around the world, intertwined with elements of jazz and pop. The group captivates audiences with their vocal virtuosity at every performance. 

Versatility and an interest in diverse musical expressions are trademarks of this exceptional octet, founded in 2003 by a group of former Westminster Abbey choristers specializing in a cappella singing, who also collaborate with internationally renowned orchestras and soloists.

This event is part of a global tour with over 100 performances, including a special anniversary concert at London’s Barbican Centre. 

Admission is free, but seating is limited.

On the same day, a guided tour of a World War I tunnel on Sveta Gora will be organized by the Walk of Peace Foundation.
