Serbian Orthodox Cantors

The ensemble that deals with the preservation of Serbian traditional music ‘Serbian Orthodox Cantors’ will be part of the Doček 7530 and a celebration of the year when Novi Sad will take the title of European Capital of Culture. This acapella ensemble will perform in the Great Hall of the Cultural Centre of Novi Sad on 13 January at 9.30 pm.

‘Serbian Orthodox Cantors’ in its repertoire nurtures songs primarily of spiritual, as well as of national, ethno and ‘starogradska’ character. The band was founded in 2011 by four friends from the Faculty of Theology, and the creator of the idea is Marko Kačarević.

Tighter Control of the Epidemiological Measures

All programmes within Doček 7530 were adapted in accordance with the epidemiological measures, so from the beginning, the planned concert capacities were limited throughout the ticket sales. As a result, the ‘Novi Sad – European Capital of Culture’ Foundation is taking over the initiative to implement additional measures and to tighten control over compliance with the said measures. Therefore, as a first measure, the Foundation recommended postponing 60 per cent of the concerts, while the tightened control will be present at the concerts that are directly produced by the Foundation. Further, the capacities of the concerts that will be realized are only filled up to 50 per cent, and even less, at certain locations. Along with the tickets, the visitors will be required to submit either a green certificate, an antigen test not older than 48 hours or a PCR test not older than 72 hours.

In accordance with the current epidemiological measures, it will be necessary to wear masks and maintain distance at the event itself.

Free testing at two sites will be provided for the visitors.

For all the visitors who do not have a green certificate, an antigen, or a PCR test, two sites for free testing will be provided on 13 January at these two locations:

• In the centre of Novi Sad, in Liberty Square (Trg Slobode) on 13 January from 12 p.m. to 11 p.m.
• Inside of the City Concert Hall (Cara Lazara Boulevard 67) on 13 January from 12 p.m. to 11 p.m.
