biography
The University of Bielsko-Biala’s choir started its activity in May 2003. It was formed by students and graduates of different fields of the University of Bielsko-Biala as well as people outside of the community. The repertoire of the group is greatly varied.
From the very beginning, the choir has been conducted by Jan Borowski.
The choir has recorded four albums including Missa de Maria a Magdala, which received a double nomination for the Fryderyk 2014 award. The French music magazine Classica honoured it with Choc de Classica prize, and it also won the prestigious Orphee d’Or prize, granted by the Académie du Disque Lyrique. Accordingly, the choir has won numerous awards in Poland and abroad.
