The Gorizia C. A. Seghizzi choir was born in November 1920 under the direction of Maestro Augusto Cesare Seghizzi.

The first “Seghizzi” Choral Singing Competition took place in 1962 and in 1963 suddenly grew an international level. Since then more than 1400 choirs and singers of 72 nations have participated in our events.

Today, beside the International Choral Competition with its Grand Prix “Seghizzi”, many events are proudly organized and presented by the group. The most important are the SEGHIZZINREGIONE Festival, the International Chamber Singing Competition for Solo Voice and Piano and the International Choral Music Composition Competition. Every year workshops, masterclasses, exibitions, publishing activities, concerts take place thanks to the Associazione Corale Goriziana C. A. Seghizzi, who also holds a rich historic archive.
