About in terra pax
The goal of the international choir “in terra pax” (“peace on earth”) is to support the exchange between people, cultures and ideas.
The choir is formed anew every year. It consists of 60 international singers who meet at the Polish town of Międzyzdroje at the Baltic Sea. In the course of one week, a challenging a capella program is assembled together with internationally renowned conductors. The prepared program is then presented in our own concerts and at the International Festival of Choral Song in Międzyzdroje.
“in terra pax” offers young students of music as well as ambitiuous amateurs an opportunity to sing together and build bridges between the different cultures and share experiences.
The rehearsal week
Our intense rehearsal week takes place in the Polish town of Miedyzydroje at the Baltic Seaclose to the Polish-German border. Several internationally renowned conductors work with the choir to assemble a challenging and entertaining a capella program. Our repertoire of previous years can be found in the program archive.
Meet choristers, make friends
At “in terra pax”, young music lovers from all over Europe meet to exchange cultures and experiences. Be prepared to make friends for life!
Culture, fun and leisure
We want to connect people from different cultures and with different backgrounds. Aside from singing together, we have mounted a whole program of fun activities, including the preparation of small theatre performances and sport competitions. Of course there will always be some time left to relax at the beach and take a swim, eat ice cream or Polish waffles! In the evening, you can listen to other choir performances at the International Festival of Choral Song in Międzyzdroje.
