For the traditional summer music festival, the "Sass Maor" Choir performs a rich repertoire of popular mountain songs in the village square
Traditional mountain songs inspired by the grandiose Alpine landscapes, glaciers, forests and legends of the Dolomites. Every Thursday evening, we will be able to listen to pieces skilfully performed by local choral groups, who will entertain us in an exciting concert, sure to be appreciated by valley dwellers and tourists alike. On 27 Juni, at 9.15 p.m., the "Sass Maor" Choir will perform in the square in front of the tourist office in Vigo.
The Sass Maor Choir of Tonadico was founded in 1974 by a group of young people from Primiero, driven by their passion for music, and takes its name from the imposing Dolomite peak that overlooks the valley. From the very beginning, the choir has been dedicated to collecting and promoting traditional local songs, reviving melodies and lyrics passed down by the older generation and helping to preserve a precious cultural heritage.
Over the years, the choir has performed in Italy and abroad, taking its music to Germany, Austria, Switzerland and even Brazil. Among its most significant experiences is its participation in the international festival "I Suoni delle Dolomiti", a symbol of the deep bond between the choir and the mountainous region from which it draws its inspiration.
Now comprising around 35 singers and conducted since 2018 by Maestro Federico Orler, the Sass Maor Choir presents a repertoire ranging from folk and mountain songs to original pieces, as well as Christmas and religious compositions, keeping alive the dialogue between tradition, memory and a passion for choral singing.
Free admission. In case of bad weather at the events pavilion in front of Hotel Vael.
