Who we are

We sing ad libitum – freely and with passion

Ad libitum was founded in 1999 in Wodzisław Śląski. Our singers live in towns across Silesia and share one thing: the joy of a common sound. We sing early, contemporary and multimedia repertoire, premiere works by Polish and international composers, and our voices carry from intimate churches to stadiums.
