The festive gathering features free performances open to the general public in University City
The Coral da Universidade de São Paulo (Coralusp) promotes in the next two weekends the 14th edition of the Coralusp Festival.
Artistic director Eduardo Fernandes explains that the program is “quite diverse with the participation of Coralusp groups and guests such as Unicamp, Unesp, Unifesp and Mackenzie universities, youth choirs and those maintained by the city halls of Jundiaí and Santo André”.
“It is a significant showcase of what is done in choral singing today, with a diverse repertoire of popular, classical and sacred music, as well as groups that sing in a non-traditional way, what we call a scenic choir, which mixes the language of music with theater.”
The free performances, open to the general public, are held at the Camargo Guarnieri Amphitheater, on USP’s Butantã campus, on Friday evenings, Saturday mornings and evenings and also on Sunday mornings and afternoons.
