Ivan Filipović Chamber Choir was formed in 1998 and has since become one of the most successful amateur a cappella ensembles in Croatia. Although this is not a professional vocal ensemble, they have won numerous awards in Croatian and prestigious international choir competitions which stand as proof to their quality and the high level of artistic interpretation achieved under the guidance of their founder Goran Jerković. The choir has a broad repertoire that spans over multiple styles – from Dutch polyphonics to more recent a capella compositions. Apart from triumphant performances in competitions such as the 2007 Musica Sacra a Roma, 2004 Choir Olympics in Germany, 2006 World Choir Games in China, etc., the Choir has also given concerts around Croatia and abroad, the most notable of which were their concerts in Israel in 2004, Taiwan in 2006 and in New York in 2015 (in the UN General Assembly Hall during the Rhythms of the World Festival, the NYU Eiser & Lubin Auditorium, and in Lincoln Center). They collaborate with the Croatian Baroque Ensemble, the Varaždin Chamber Orchestra, Croatian Radio Television Choir and with renowned soloists. Apart from regular participation in seminars for choirs, the members are also trained through the Choir's collaboration with singer and teacher Mitchell Sandler. Their records include a CD release A cappella and a CD/DVD release Dietrich Buxtehude: Membra Jesu nostri as well as a CD/DVD release Praizvedbe u HAZU dedicated to Croatian composers.
