Under the direction of chorus master Riccardo Bianchi, KorMalta embarks on a captivating musical odyssey themed around the sea. The ensemble's repertoire spans from the Renaissance era, featuring the timeless Mille Regretz attributed to Josquin Des Prez, to Monteverdi's renowned madrigal Ecco Mormorar l’Onde, which is adorned with the poetic brilliance of Torquato Tasso.

The prepared programme seamlessly transitions into contemporary expressions of maritime exploration, encompassing Charles Camilleri’s [1931-2009] poignant Pacem in Maribus, John Rutter’s [b.1945] environmentally-themed anthem Look at the World, and Luciano Berio’s [1925-2003] innovative reinterpretation of the Sicilian melody E Si Fussi Pisci, dedicated to Umberto Eco. Berio's piece showcases unconventional vocal techniques, including closed-mouth singing and tongue-clicking, adding a distinctive layer to the ensemble's musical voyage.
