An ordinary youth gospel choir formed into a mixed choir, which interprets more complex secular and spiritual compositions of various historical periods – from Gregorian chants, through Renaissance, Baroque to a contemporary modern spiritual music. The repertoire of the choir also consists of Slovak folk songs as well as African spirituals.

Several performances have been given at various fundraising concerts in the city of Trencin cooperating with some of the leading Slovak artists. Annually, the choir takes part in an international project of a school choirs‘ meeting from three Slavic countries – Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. It has also performed at several choir festivals in Slovakia and in the Czech Republic.
For many years there has been an active cooperation with Chamber Orchestra of Karol Pádivý Elementary Arts School in Trenčín.

The number of choir members is variable, this school year there are around 45 singers including students, former students and professors of the school.
The fact to be proud of is, that the performance of Mozart’s Te Deum is the most viewed video of this composition (over 258K views) on youtube.com.

The artistic director and conductor since its inception is Martin Holúbek, a graduate of Kardoš Private Conservatory in Topoľčany, currently working as a music teacher and a deputy director of the above mentioned Arts School in Trenčín. He is one of the founding members of ADOREMUS choir (1992) and was a member of Bratislava Conservatory Chamber Choir and a conductor of a parish choir NATIVITATIS Trenčín, which he has been leading for 20 years.
