CAMERATA SILESIA Camerata Silesia, The Katowice City Singers’ Ensemble, founded in 1990 by Anna Szostak, is a team of vocalists, who sing as a chamber ensemble and perform solo parts for vocal and instrumental music as well as in unaccompanied choral repertoire. In a short time the Camerata Silesia has become the most instantly recognizable Polish ensemble specialising in performance of both early and contemporary music. The singers’ unusual technical efficiency, along with a style of singing and intonation appropriate to the early music performance canon, has attracted the attention of both critics and composers. The former have been generous with praise while the latter have composed pieces specifically for the ensemble, dedicating them to various singers and to the conductor, who were all specially sought out for first performances of these pieces. The choir’s discography embraces thirteen releases, which have repeatedly been awarded prestigous phonographic awards.
