My Dear DCINY Alums,

I’m sending this email to offer you a truly once-in-a-lifetime performance experience in Croatia:  The World Premiere of King Tomislav, celebrating the 1100 year anniversary of the first King of Croatia, written for chorus and full orchestra by the famous Croatian Composer Matej Mestrovic.  I look forward to conducting this event and invite you to sing in the choir of voices from around the world including the professional Opera Choir and Orchestra of the Croatian National Theatre (CNT).

The Premiere will take place on Tuesday, July 2, 2025, (July 3 rain date) in the closing ceremony of the Zagreb Classic (2024 information on link; 2025 info coming soon) a very famous annual music festival held in the center of Zagreb.  The dates of the rehearsals and performance are June 25 to July 5.  We have been offered a limited number of government-sponsored accommodations, including breakfast and dinner for 11 days/10 nights in a 5-star hotel within walking distance of the rehearsal space and performing venue.  For more information, click on the portal link at the bottom of this page.

With only a few spaces now remaining, we are giving priority to Tenors and Basses; Sopranos/altos may register who have a bass or tenor to register with them at the same time.  We truly have limited spots and because of the government underwriting, this is an extremely generous package in a 5 star hotel.  I encourage you to check it out, share with your singer friends, and make a memorable holiday out of it.

Please join us,

Jonathan
