Greeting from the Artistic Director
All of these years, our aim is to promote the Choir Art and bring together heterogeneous cultures from different
countries and places of the world. The majority of the participating choirs consist of highly qualified
conductors and choir members, demonstrating their sincere respect to the choral heritage. As an artistic
director, I expect outstanding live performances as well as an incredible competition event. For the
organization of our choral events in Greece, I would like to personally thank the organizing committee of the
Festival, the municipality of Karpenissi and the Regional Division of Evrytania, but also all the participating
choirs. I finally wish a pleasant accommodation full of unforgettable moments to everybody. This year, we
are glad to celebrate the 30 years of life for the Choir of Karpenissi “Antonio Vivaldi”: the choir of our city.
Χαιρετισμός από τον Περιφερειάρχη Στερεάς Ελλάδας Κώστα Μπακογιάννη
Η Περιφέρεια Στερεάς Ελλάδας στηρίζει ένα μακρόβιο και
συνάμα πολύ ξεχωριστό για τον τόπο μας θεσμό. Η

μουσικού πολιτισμού και είμαστε πολύ περήφανοι που το
Καρπενήσι φιλοξενεί με συνέπεια από το 1988 το Διεθνές
Χορωδιακό Φεστιβάλ και το Διεθνή Διαγωνισμό Χορωδιών

στο διαγωνισμό χορωδίες και ευχάριστη διαμονή σε όλους τους επισκέπτες μας.
Greeting from the Head of the Region of Central Greece Kostas Bakoyannis
The Region of Central Greece supports a special long- lived institution. The choir art is a significant part of

Χαιρετισμός Αντιπεριφερειάρχη Ευρυτανίας Αριστείδη Τασιού
Με μεγάλη χαρά φιλοξενούμε και φέτος στον τόπο μας ένα σπουδαίο μουσικό
γεγονός που καθιστά την πρωτεύουσα της Ευρυτανίας και αυτό το καλοκαίρι
κέντρο της χορωδιακής τέχνης στην Ελλάδα. Με σημαντικές χορωδίες από την
Ελλάδα, αλλά και το εξωτερικό, το Διεθνές Χορωδιακό Φεστιβάλ και ο Διεθνής
Διαγωνισμός Χορωδιών Antonio Vivaldi, αποτελούν μία μεγάλη διοργάνωση που
η Περιφερειακή Ενότητα Ευρυτανίας αγκαλιάζει και στηρίζει με όλες της τις
δυνάμεις.
Greeting from the Deputy Head of the Region of Central Greece (Regional Division of Evrytania)
Aristides Tasios
With great pleasure, we host in our Region a great music event, which, each summer, transforms the capital
of Evrytania into the center of chora l art in Greece. Gathering numerous brilliant choirs from Greece and
abroad, the International Choir Festival and the International Choir Contest “Antonio Vivaldi”, is a great event
that the Regional Division of Evrytania strongly embraces and supports.
Χαιρετισμός Δημάρχου Καρπενησίου Νίκου Σουλιώτη
Με ιδιαίτερη χαρά και τιμή σας καλωσορίζουμε στο 20o Διεθνές Χορωδιακό
Φεστιβάλ και στον 14ο Διεθνή Διαγωνισμό Χορωδιών Antonio Vivaldi. Χορωδίες
από όλο τον κόσμο πλημμυρίζουν με χρώμα, μελωδίες και μουσική κάθε χρόνο την
πόλη μας. Η σημασία της μουσικής παιδείας έχει από αρχαιοτάτων χρόνων
αναγνωριστεί. Δεν είναι τυχαίο ότι στην Αρχαία Ελλάδα ο καλλιεργημένος
άνθρωπος λεγόταν «μουσικός ανήρ», ενώ στην κλασσική Ελλάδα η μουσική
συμπεριλαμβάνεται στην εκπαίδευση των παιδιών. Διαχρονικά σήμερα η μουσική γαληνεύει την ψυχή μας
και ομορφαίνει την καθημερινότητά μας. Για το λόγο αυτό σύμφωνα με τον Πλάτωνα «η εκπαίδευση στη
μουσική είναι ανάγκη επιτακτική, γιατί περισσότερο από οτιδήποτε στον κόσμο ο ρυθμός και η αρμονία
επηρεάζουν το ενδότερο κομμάτι του εαυτού μας και ο καθένας από εμάς θα πρέπει να ξέρει πώς να το
χαλιναγωγήσει».
Greetings from the Mayor of Karpenissi Nikos Souliotis
It is a great pleasure and honor to welcome you to the 20th Choir Festival and the 14th Choir Contest “Antonio
Vivaldi”. Every year, choirs from all over the world, color with their presence, melodies and music our city.
The significance of the musical education and culture is well recognized since ancient times. It is a fact that in
Ancient Greece the cultured man called "music man" that’s why all over the years the music calms the soul
and beautifies our lives. As the philosopher Platon said: “Musical education is an urgent need, because more
than anything in the world, rhythm and harmony affect the innermost part of us, helping each one of us to rein
in it."

Διεύθυνση/Choirmaster: Pastor Rubben
The choir is a vocal group that glorifies God through spiritual songs. It
contributes to the development of the Church Grace, accompanying the
different ceremonies or sacraments. This choir is the instrument of
evangelization of Jesus Christ of messages through the hymns. Youth in
the Church Grace is the spearhead, it is the platform that brings together
all the movements and church associations, it is defined not as a category of persons of a definite age (those under 35 years),
according to international criterion, but as a mindset of people of all ages whose souls who live in the Lord Jesus Christ do not age;
This vision of the association church la grace youth can be taken as the church in miniature, the church in the church in its aspect
composition, education and development.
