The choir boasts a diverse repertoire that includes popular, spiritual, sacral, classical, and folk music, regularly showcased at concerts throughout Slovakia and abroad. Past performances include the Alexander Duchnovič Theatre in Prešov, the FÚGA Cultural Centre in Košice, Dobrý trh in Bratislava, the City of Bratislava’s Christmas programme, and an International Music Festival in Portugal.
