The Carmina Silesia Choir was founded in 2007 by students of the University of the Third Age in Ruda Śląska. Initially called the Chamber Choir, the group's rapidly growing membership resulted in a new name, which translates to "Songs of Silesia" in Latin.

 

Carmina Silesia's performances are an essential part of celebrations organized by the Ruda University of the Third Age, such as the inauguration of the academic year and the Christmas wafer gathering. Traditionally, each year the choir participates in the "Kolędujmy Małymu" (Let's Sing Carols to the Little One) University of the Third Age Choir Festival.

 

Carmina Silesia is proud to have won distinctions at the National Juwenalia of the Third Age in Warsaw and the Grand Prix of the 4th Wrocław Review of Senior Choirs.

In 2023, the ensemble 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 Christmas carols and even light, entertaining sounds.
