Canticum cordium

Poľsko

The Gregorian Schola ”Canticum Cordium” is a group of the Gregorian music loving girls who cherish the wish to popularize this particular genre of music. The group was formally established in 2008 by Fr. Mariusz Białkowski and consists of students from the Faculty of Choral Conducting, Music Education and Church Music of I.J. Paderewski Academy of Music, Poznań and other universities. The schola has given a number of concerts and has led the singing of the liturgy during Masses. By their singing the ensemble members wish to revive the oldest and most beautiful Gregorian melodies, carrying a prayer to God – hearts' singing. In its repertoire the schola has works related to the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church for over twenty centuries of its history. Often the concert becomes a unique opportunity to listen to these pieces of music which for various reasons were not included in the canon of the liturgy after the Council of Trent or the Second Vatican Council. In its style and sound the ensemble seeks to present the latest findings of the semiological research which, initiated by Fr. Eugene Cardine, OSB, are continued today by such masters as Nino Albarosa, Alberto Turco, Johannes Göschl.
