Cuban Choir Stands Out at International Event in South Africa |
|
|
Monday, July 16, 2018
Havana.- The Cuban choir Ensemble Vocal Luna, directed by Wilma Verrier, won the Gold Medal in the Modern Music category at the Choral Olympic Games held in South Africa.
The 14-strong group participated in the 10th edition of the Choral Games, which were held for the first time in Africa and was attended by some 300 choirs from more than 60 countries.
The Cuban female group gave a special concert in Pretoria, where they presented a varied repertoire that included sacred music, Cuban songs and a traditional song used in weddings of the Zulu ethnical group.
The Cuban vocalists were chosen by the organizers of the event to compete among the champion choirs, a distinction that is only granted to those who have won awards at world festivals from 2016 to 2018.
Ensemble Vocal Luna shared the stage at Universiteitsoord Pretoria with Russia's Altro Choir, the choir from the Stellenbosch University, from South Africa, and Jeugdkoor Waelrant, from Belgium.
