Madrigal Choir - Extraordinary Performance "60th Madrigal Gala", conductor Anna Ungureanu

The National Chamber Choir "Madrigal - Marin Constantin" presents an Extraordinary Performance "60th Madrigal Gala" at the "I.L. Caragiale" National Theatre from Bucharest (NTB) on Tuesday, February 28, 2023, at 7 pm.

Through music and art, the famous ensemble, conducted by Anna Ungureanu, invites the audience to celebrate together 60 years of uninterrupted existence of the Madrigal Choir.

Each year in February, the Madrigal Choir dedicates a musical event to the memory of Marin Constantin, the creator of the ensemble. The Extraordinary Performance "60th Madrigal Gala" is a special tribute to the huge legacy of the legendary musician and his artistic vision, woven by the Madrigal Choir during 6 decades dedicated to art, cultural representation and belief in changing Romania through music.

The performance "60th Madrigal Gala" is part of the series of syncretic events developed by the Madrigal Choir in recent years, with elements of scenography, direction, design and light projections, as well as the participation of children from the choirs of the National Cantus Mundi Program.

During the Gala, in addition to the "Marin Constantin" Excellence Awards, the Madrigal Choir will present several premieres, including the Extraordinary Concert "Madrigale și motete" - which will highlight one of the ensemble's emblematic repertoires in a particular setting, the launch of the new series of historical costumes, a series of musical moments and surprise artistic encounters, as well as exhibitions and presentations from the Madrigal archive, which spectators will be able to enjoy from the moment they enter the foyer of the National Theatre.
