That was our answer, unexpected even for us, since we hadn’t thought of a name yet. It happened on a December night in 2001 in Sopron in front of the Dömötöri Patisserie where we sang ChriStmas carols for the passersby. We didn’t notice being founded, only the joy of polyphonic singing. It was, and Still is our experience that making music together Strengthens exiSting friendships and facilitates the development of new ones. We Started out with 13 people and our numbers have only been growing ever since, we count 25-35 members on average. We gladly sing anything may that be it religious or secular, Hungarian or from abroad regardless of its period or language if it fits our skills and numbers. We sing in churches, reStaurants, museums, the Academy of Music, small villages in Hungary or AuStria, at international competitions, libraries – anyplace where we are welcome.

Concierto celebrado el 29 de Julio de 2012 en La Couvertoirade, precioso pueblo templario del sur de Francia. 4º FeStival internacional de corales, Aveyron. FROM A DIStANCE From a diStance the world looks blue and green, and the snowcapped mountains white. From a diStance the ocean meets the scream and the eagle takes to flight. From a diStance there is harmony, and it echoes trough the land. It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace, It's the voice of ev'ry man. God is watching us, God is watching us, God is watching us. From a diStance we all have no enough, and no one is in need. There are no guns, no bombs, no diseases, no hungry mouths to feed. From a diStance we are intruments, marching in a common band. Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace, They're the songs of ev'ry man. It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves, It's the heart of ev'ry man. God is watching us, God is watching us, God ... Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less
