Tbilisi Children’s Capella
I came across this video quite by chance, it having led on from another. I was enchanted by it.
Tbilisi Children’s Capella is a children and youth choir from Georgia, named after Georgia’s capital. Tbilisi is Georgia’s largest city, and is home to about a third of the Georgian population.
The choir was founded by Gela Parchukidze, originally as a boys’ choir and was called the Tbilisi Boys’ Capella. After girls were included the name was changed to Tbilisi Children’s Capella.
The term ‘a cappella’ is Italian for ‘in the style of the chapel’ and refers to music that is sung unaccompanied. Although this performance has elements of ‘a cappella’ it also includes instruments.
There are more videos of the choir on YouTube.
I hope you enjoy it!
