The youth choir CARO was founded at the elementary school in Raškovice in September 2013. Raškovice is a charming village near Lysá mountain. The choir has been led by Mgr. Anna Kajzarová, who heads two choirs, CARO and Bel Canto, in Třinec. There are 68 children in two sections of the choir, aged 7-16. The choir has a broad repertoire, featuring not only classical composers but also songs from current popular authors. Traditional Silesian and Lachian songs, along with spirituals, also hold an important place in the choir's portfolio. Over the years, the choir has participated in over 160 concerts and competitions, not only in the Czech Republic but also in Poland and Slovakia. The choir has received several important awards, such as the 2nd place at the Christmas International Choir Festival in Prague, the 3rd place at the International Festival of Advent and Christmas Music in Bratislava, and another 2nd place at the Christmas International Choir Festival in Prague. A significant achievement for the choir is the 1st place at the Prague Advent and Christmas Choral Festival with Petr Eben's Prize in December 2022
Mgr. Anna Kajzarová was educated at Matej Bel University in Banská Bystrica, graduating in 1983. She was mentored by Doc. PhDr. Tibor Sedlický. Subsequently, she worked as a teacher at elementary schools and music schools. In 1996, she founded Caro, a children's school choir, and also the youth choir Bel Canto in Třinec. She collaborated with dulcimer music, orchestras, opera, and popular music singers. Additionally, she worked with Český rozhlas and recorded four CDs. Unfortunately, the activities of both choirs came to an end due to the closure of the school. Since 2013, Mrs. Kajzarová has been working at the elementary school in Raškovice, where she founded the school choir called CARO Raškovice. She was honored with a special prize for excellent work with young singers at the Prague Advent and Christmas Choral Festival, receiving Petr Eben's Prize
