Born and raised in Ukrainia dr. Myroslaw Antonowycz conducted the worship services in Culemborg for the reestablished Ukrainian seminar. After the seminarians were graduated, they swarmed out to fulfill their priestly vocation for the Ukrainians all over the world. the now outside the monastery walls well-known seminarian choir fell apart while applications for the singing of liturgies and concerts throughout the Netherlands, kept coming.
On the initiative of Msgr. AG Smith, dr. Antonowycz founded the Utrecht Byzantine Choir on February 9, 1951, consisting of only Dutch men, who specialized in singing the liturgy according to the Slavic-Byzantine rite.
In cooperation with the Apostolate of the Eastern Churches, the UBK initially only sang liturgies according to the Byzantine Rite. Hundreds of parishes in the Netherlands became familiar with ... less

CHC, as often called by parishioners was the official choral group of the Ugnayan St. Joseph the Worker from the Mother of the Redeemer Parish in Deparo Caloocan City. In 2002, Mr. Victor Ventus became the new leader of the group; and under his supervision the choir was considered one of the finest in the Parish. CHC was composed of mixed voices back then; but like any other group, members do come and go. In 2005, most its female members left to study and work. 2006 came and CHC was officially announced and named after its patron saint as Koro de San Jose, the first and only All-Male choir in the Parishes’ history. In 2007, Mark Westvent Abesia started assisting Victor Ventus in teaching the members vocal parts and harmony. Koro de San Jose was able to perform for the Bishop of the Diocese of Novaliches, Schools ... less
