Summary/Abstract: The work aims to highlight the cultural importance of the activity of the Antifonia Choir in the landscape of contemporary Romanian and European music. Founded in 1969 within the „Gh.Dima” Conservatory of Music from Cluj-Napoca (now Academy, ANMGD)) by the teacher, conductor and composer C. Rîpă in order to promote the new trends in Romanian avant-garde music, the choir was composed, from the very beginning, of the best solfegists of the institution, trained to be able to interpret in the first absolute audition works of great complexity signed by both contemporary Romanian and foreign composers. Completed by the list of premieres, Antifonia’s portfolio includes over 1000 concerts, 14 international awards, participation in important European festivals, collaboration with important orchestras and conductors of world renown. The cultural dimension consists in the uniqueness of the Antifonia phenomenon as well as in the leading role of the Romanian choral movement in the last two decades of the second millenium.
