Voce Segreto is a mixed youth choir operating at the Miejski Ośrodek Kultury (MOK) cultural centre in Żory, directed by Andrzej Marciniec. The choir is mainly made up of young people from schools in Żory. [1] [2]
Voce Segreto was founded in September 1991 [3] [2] (initially as Ciężka Batuta). Its founder is Andrzej Marciniec, a graduate of the University of Silesia in Cieszyn, who has been a conductor and a teacher of music education in the Karol Miarka Liceum since the beginning of the choir's existence. [2] During the first 14 years the choir members' voice technique and emission was supervised by Henryk Paus. Nowadays this function is performed by Elżbieta Żydek. [4] The members of the choir are students of Karol Miarka Liceum and other municipal middle and high schools. [5]
The range of works performed by the choir is wide. The repertoire that the choir sings at a concert depends on the liturgical period or season, among other things. Voce Segreto performs various types of songs – from traditional carols, spirituals, gospel songs, through pop music pieces to folk music. In the past, the choir has also performed with an orchestra from the music school in Opole, performing works by Bach and Mozart. A large part of the works are prepared by the conductor, "Czarna Alibaba", "Majowa Ballada", "Wieża Babel" or "Przybieżeli do Betlejem". The choir sometimes performs together with the shanty band "Ryczące Dwudziestki", [6] whose member is the choir conductor – Andrzej Marciniec. [7] [8]
The choir has collected many honors and awards, [2] [5] some of which are:
The choir has also made a series of tours abroad, [3] [8] [2] [5] including:
