Opis
Międzynarodowy Festiwal Chórów „GaudeCantem” odbędzie się w roku 2021 już po raz szesnasty. Historia imprezy jest jednak dłuższa - sięga roku 1996. Wtedy właśnie „Gaude Cantem” został zorganizowany po raz pierwszy w Oświęcimiu, jako najważniejszy w roku przegląd zespołów śpiewaczych skupionych w Bielskim Oddziale Polskiego Związku Chórów i Orkiestr. Ta właśnie organizacja wraz z Regionalnym Ośrodkiem Kultury w Bielsku-Białej to niezmiennie, od początku po dzień dzisiejszy, główni organizatorzy Festiwalu. Świadectwem pamięci o tamtych pierwszych latach, a nade wszystko wyrazem szacunku dla Kazimierza Fobera, nieżyjącego już współtwórcy przeglądu, wówczas prezesa oddziału PZChiO w Bielsku-Białej, jest nadanie imprezie jego imienia. Miejscem trzech pierwszych edycji (1996-1998) był Oświęcim. Później impreza została przeniesiona do Bielska-Białej i tu pozostała już na stałe.
Od 2005 roku, kiedy to po kilku latach przerwy ponownie zaczęto zapraszać zespoły zagraniczne, w imprezie wzięły udział 282 chóry z Czech, Łotwy, Macedonii, Niemiec, Słowacji, Słowenii, Węgier, Włoch, Rosji, Estonii, Cypru i Polski.
W programie Festiwalu znajdują się: warsztaty chóralne, seminarium dla dyrygentów chórów, konkurs chóralny, Przegląd Chórów Seniora (skierowany do zespołów w których składzie min. 30% stanowią osoby w wieku 60+) oraz koncerty festiwalowe organizowane w Bielsku-Białej i miejscowościach powiatu bielskiego, cieszyńskiego i pszczyńskiego.
Organizatorom zależy na tym, by impreza pomagała podnosić umiejętności uczestniczącym zespołom i dyrygentom, ale również, by była okazją do artystycznej rywalizacji chórów od dziecięcych do seniora.
Informujemy z dumą, że od tej edycji zwycięzca Festiwalu otrzymuje nominację do udziału w Konkursie Grand Prix Polskiej Chóralistyki im. Stefana Stuligrosza w Poznaniu.
