Five choirs from Austria are set to perform in Dubrovnik, Croatia, from July 14-20, 2026, as part of the international cultural and musical project "Music Connecting Us โ Dubrovnik Choir Tour 2026." The initiative aims to foster connections between Austria and Croatia through music, unity, and cultural exchange.
The diverse program will feature sacred, classical, traditional, and contemporary choral music. The participating choirs include the Fischamend City Choir and the Pro Musica Haslau-Maria Ellend Choir from Lower Austria, the "Open Hearts" Women's Choir from Vienna, the Choir of Staff from Speising Orthopedic Hospital in Vienna, and the Ottakringer Liedertafel Men's Choir from Vienna.
The tour's highlight is the "Evening of Choral Music" concert scheduled for July 17, 2026, at 9 p.m. in the Church of St. Blaise within Dubrovnik's historic Old Town. Local singer-songwriter Josip ฤeniฤ will join the choirs, accompanied by pianist Kamila Zaveckaite. An additional performance is planned for July 19 in Trsteno, where the choirs will enrich a liturgical celebration and concert program following a Holy Mass.
The project is supported by the Dubrovnik branch of the Croatian Emigrant Association and the Croatian-Austrian Society of Dubrovnik.
The goal of this international project is to connect Austria and Croatia through music, unity, and cultural cooperation.
