Carmina Silesia Choir

The Carmina Silesia Choir is a group established in 2007 on the initiative of students of the University of the Third Age in Ruda Śląska. Initially, it was called the Chamber Choir, but due to the rapidly growing number of members, it received a new name, which in Latin means "Silesian Songs".

​

Carmina Silesia's performances are an indispensable element of celebrations organized by the University of Ruda, such as the inauguration of the academic year or the Christmas wafer meeting. Traditionally, each year the choir takes part in the Choir Review

​

Universities of the Third Age "Let's carol to the Little One".

Carmina Silesia can be proud of winning distinctions at the National Juwenalia of the Third Age in Warsaw and the Grand Prix of the 4th Wrocław Senior Choir Review.

​

In 2023, the ensamble had the opportunity to accompany musician Dawid Podsiadło during his concerts at the NOSPR in Katowice and joined the family of choirs taking part in the 4th Night of Choirs in Ruda Śląska.

​

Carmina's repertoire consists mainly of folk songs, especially those from Silesia, but it also includes traditional carols and even light, entertaining sounds.
