Ensemble Alioni's
Visit to Georgia
Ensemble Alioni went on an amazing journey to the Republic of Georgia in 2015.
Our singers toured several regions of the country and the capital city, Tbilisi -- studying Georgian vocal technique and learning songs in the traditional manner, person-to-person from Georgian master singers!

Singers from Ensemble Alioni arrived in Tbilisi, the capital city of Georgia. After collecting the luggage we made our way out of the city and drove about two hours east, into the mountains to the town of Sighnaghi, which was the first stop on our learning tour. Click on the picture of the town below to journey along from the beginning with us (a new page will open). Or skip ahead by clicking on a picture further below for other places that we visited on our adventure! Considering the variety of mountains, coastlines, forests and lush farmlands, it's amazing to us that the entire nation of Georgia is roughly half the size of the state of Wisconsin!
