The ensemble was founded in 1993 by 5 professional singers. The concerts only feature the singers,
there is no musical backing. The repertoire consists of liturgical singing - hundreds of Kievan
chants as well as Russian polyphonic of the 17th - 18th century, masterpieces of Greek, Serbian,
Georgian church music, the best sacred creations of S. Degtyatev, D. Bortnynskoi, A. Nicolskii, A.
Grechanunov, N. Kedrova-son, S.Trubachev, K. Nikitin - and many Russian folk songs. The main task is
to research, perform and preserve the rich musical heritage of the North of Russia. The ensemble has
produced several CDs and had some successful tours both Russian and foreign: Finland , England
(2001, 2002) and USA (2002, 2003, 2004).
