Italy
Olbia Folk Ensemble was founded within Lorenzo Perosi choir in Olbia. After a year of preparation the ensemble has debuted at the XIV International Festival of Sacred Music in Olbia in 2008. In 2009, following the example of Lorenzo Perosi Choir they have performed at the Miskolc townhall in Hungary and in St. Basil’s Church in Milan. Afterwards, new singers entered the ensemble and brought new views on the music, mostly Sardinian folk music. In 2014 Olbia Folk Ensemble released their first CD entitled Lu Trambucconi. Their repertoire is vast and includes various genres, sacred and secular music, Sardinian folksongs and their own compositions.
