Molitva was founded in 2000 as a spin-off project of a local church
choir. The small-scale initiative soon developed into a full-scale
vocal group. Over the past few years, Molitva has been making
steady progress through coaching, study and growing performance expierence.
The name “Molitva” derives from orthodox tradition: the word means prayer in Slavonic. It refers to the sacred atmosphere embedded
in orthodox liturgy and to the audience’s artistic experience at a
Molitva concert. The group aims for an atmosphere of peaceful,
intimate and profound musical experience.
Since its foundation, Molitva has been conducted by Hugo Smekens, former bass singer at the Flemish Radio Choir.
