Sacra religio - CD

The Sacra Religio CD has been published by the Zbor sv. Nikolaja choir conducted by Helena Fojkar Zupančič in November 2007 on its 10th anniversary. It contains a treasury of Slovene and foreign spiritual music of different time periods, with special attention on modern choral masterworks.



The selected authors are esteemed, renowned composers in their music fields from all over the world. Their works are characterized by ingenuity, the deep connection of lyrics and music and the richness of contents. Special attention was given to contemporary Slovene composers (Močnik, Misson, Čopi) and to their three yet unpublished pieces, two of which were dedicated to the St. Nicholas choir.

In the enclosed booklet you can find original texts and lyrics, as well as Slovene translations. Some of them were translated into Slovene especially for this occasion.

This project had reaped success and approval in Slovenia even when still in the preparation phase and has been endorsed by the Ministry of Culture.
