"OZIERI. The series of events celebrating the 40th birthday of the Città di Ozieri Choir opens on Friday, July 7, with the now customary appointment with the show "Between the sacred and the profane". For the seventh edition, scheduled from 7.30 p.m. in the church of San Francesco, there will be a cultural exchange with the choir La Preara of Caprino Veronese, which will also be an opportunity to present the latest recording of the Città di Ozieri, made thanks to the contribution of the Rotary Club Ozieri. It is the CD "Sabore 'e Sardigna", which collects eight songs of the repertoire never recorded before, three classics of the previous CDs and two "live" recorded in Hungary on the occasion of a very important international festival in which the City of Ozieri participated as guests.

A repertoire of sacred hymns and traditional island songs was presented.

"OZIERI. A new prestigious success for the Città di Ozieri Choir, which has recently been a guest in Hungary, where it brought the island's music and culture to the 19th edition of the European Convivial Wine Song Festival in Pécs, a historic imperial city 200 kilometres from Budapest. Joining the Logudoresi were the Klapa Kastav Choir (Croatia), the Sàinguerrunde Kritzendorf Choir (Austria), the Sandvitten Male Choir (Sweden), the Kodàli Zoltan Male Choir (Budapest), the Béla Bartok Choir (Pècs), the Zengo Folk Ensemble (Pècs) and the Pannon Philharmonic Orchestra (Pècs). Special guests are the Dance Ensemble "MecseK" and the Brass Band from Pècs. The event began in the evocative, underground cellars of Villàni in the presence of a Hungarian government minister. Each group performed a song dedicated to wine, followed by touring concerts in the streets and in the cosy open cellars throughout the city. After the debut, there were more performances in the main squares of Pècs, including a live TV broadcast by the national broadcaster from the Municipal Theatre."

TWINNING BETWEEN 'HARMONIE DES CAMPAGNES' AND 'CITTA' DI OZIERI

"The 2014 social year of the Lausanne Nuraghe ends on a high note. And in 'Harmonie', thanks to the voices of the two men's choirs, Harmonie des Campagnes and Coro Città di Ozieri, who performed together on Saturday 22 November, harmonically...

Two choirs that, on closer inspection, have a lot in common, starting with the fact that they are men's choirs, amateur and amateurish in nature, with a significant number of singers, 54 Swiss and 22 Sardinians respectively, operating in a non-town environment, united by a love of music that is not easy to enjoy and listen to, melodious for the Swiss, more serious for the Sardinians, as well as purely technical differences that were 'taught' to me by the Ozierese choristers.
