The mixed chamber choir Ljubljanski madrigalisti was originally established in 1991 as a 30-member choir led by Matjaž Šček. Today its conductor is Andreja Martinjak. The choir's repertoire comprises choral music of all periods, primarily Renaissance music and sacred music performed in churches; it also interprets contemporary Slovene compositions (occasionally written specially for the choir) and folk songs. The choir performs around 30 concerts a year, one third of these abroad. It has toured to Italy, Sweden, France, Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom and the Czech Republic. The choir's varied discography includes music of the 20th century, Gallus compositions performed together with Madrigal Quintet from Brno, Czech Republic, new adaptations of Slovene folk songs and new choral adaptations of prayers. The choir has received several awards, including a prize at Jersey and a gold plaque in the Naša pesem Choir Competition of 2001.
