The Director of the National Theatre of Opera, Ballet and Folk Ensemble, Aulon Naçi, shared images on social media from the ensemble’s concert in Udine, Italy.
He said another important chapter in the international journey of Albanian iso-polyphony concluded successfully in Italy. The performance took place within the Piccolo Opera Festival 2026.
The Albanian National Folk Ensemble presented traditional iso-polyphonic music at the Santo Stefano Protomartire Church in Udine. The concert brought authentic sounds of a centuries-old tradition to the Italian audience.
The performance received strong applause and positive appreciation from the public. It also highlighted the global value of Albanian iso-polyphony, which UNESCO has recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
The ensemble said it continues to promote Albania’s cultural heritage on international stages. It added that it will present more performances abroad throughout the summer.
