The International Festival of University Choirs "Universitas Cantat” promotes academic culture in the field of musical arts. More than ten university choirs and orchestral ensembles from all around the world are invited for the event to Poznań. Participants have the opportunity to present music of their countries in its full diversity. On the other hand, they also promote Polish music by performing the final piece together with other ensembles. All of these activities create a space for an inspiring cultural and artistic exchange.
Poznań, the city which hosts the festival, is one of Poland's most important choral art centres with an extraordinarily rich tradition in this domain. The main auditorium during the Festival is Adam Mickiewicz University Hall - a beautiful neo-Renaissance concert venue famous for its remarkable acoustic properties.
"Universitas Cantat” owes its amazing atmosphere to people - joyful, radiant, in love with choral music and engaged in the concerted organisational effort. Their passion for each festival shows that participation of young people in producing high culture is a matter of international importance and that performing music together is a universal value of enduring attractiveness.
The festival is of non-competitive nature.
