Capella Juvenalis was founded in 2007 by Caro Kindt, has been invited to perform in several european countries and recently won a First Prize Summa Cum Laude at the Europees Muziekfestival voor de Jeugd (linkje eronder naar de engelse pagina). Capella represents everything NVA has to offer – high quality children’s and youth choir singing, combined with confident stage presentation and more. The melting of Renaissance song, dance, instrumental music, theatre and staging into a dynamic performance, and the fact that this is all performed by children and young people, is a combination you will not find anywhere else. Capella’s performances aim to bring the Renaissance to life; they invite the audience to see the court entertainment from long ago and make the symbolic meanings of the authentic dances meaningful for a modern audience.
