Dunkelbunt und Cantus Novus Wien: Friling
In their program Friling, Dunkelbunt and Cantus Novus Wien dare to merge to create a unique sound experience: tradition meets modernity, Western choral music encounters oriental and Indian sounds. When the layered voices of Cantus Novus Wien blend with the multifaceted music of Dunkelbunt, a fascinating fusion of choral singing and acoustic world music is born.
40 singers, virtuoso instrumentalists, complemented by the elegance of Indian Kathak dance. An experiment that straddles sacred depth and urban energy—sensual, surprising, and absolutely captivating.

About Cantus Novus Wien
Cantus Novus Wien, based at the Vienna Diocesan Conservatory for Church Music, has been directed by Thomas Holmes since 2001. In 2018, it was named “Choir of the Year” by the Vienna Choir Forum for its outstanding choral work. Cantus Novus Wien regularly showcases its broad stylistic range: at the international film music gala “Hollywood in Vienna” 2019, the consecration of the new organ at St. Stephen’s cathedral in Vienna in 2020 or in the ambitious video productions.
The choir’s repertoire includes oratorios, among others, by Handel (Israel in Egypt; Messiah) and Haydn (The Creation). And the Requiem settings by Mozart, Brahms, Verdi and Fauré. With contemporary music as one of the focal points, the choir premiered works by Wolfgang Sauseng, Ruth McGuire, Wolfgang Reisinger, Markus Pfandler, Wolfram Wagner and Annamaria Kowalsky.
