Where do you come from?
Bratislava, Slovensko

Why do you like Apollo?
I sing here because long time ago Julo Žatko convinced me to try it. I have always loved listening to music and singing. When I started to play piano I understood that I could intonate but at that time I never immagined I could be singing in public. Now I know that it was a good choice in my life and I wouldnt change Apollo for any other choir. ;) There are wonderful people with whom you can have a lot of fun... I keep beautiful memories from each our concert or trip and I´m looking forward to all future ones....

Do you have a favourite song in our repertoire? Which one?
I like the majority of songs we sing. I agree that Milan, our conductor, has simply a very good taste. Hmmm. But if I had to name some songs, in my list there would definitely be all Ave Maria´s, Milosť Mira, Biebl´s Angelus Domini and spirituals too of course. ;)

Is there any instrument that sounds well in your hands?
Definitely piano, but I should do more practise I guess. :)

What is your favourite music style or singers?
My favourite style is pop (especially 1980´s), but in fact I like everything from classics to light rock.

What makes you happy?
Smiles of people sistening to our songs...

Said about Apollo

Apollo? Simply "a must" experience :-) :-)

I came to Apollo three months after I moved to Bratislava for work. Singing and meeting people from Apollo helps me relax in my busy life.

In connection with Apollo I always think of it´s people and of the energy that Apollo gives me.

I love Apollo mailing list and the Apollo-journal written by Giulio:) and summer barbecues, apollo parties and singing just where we feel the need, for instance in Jihlava catacombs :)

I came to Apollo when I started my university studies and it was just a coincidence that I tried out the first thing I came across. Well and then I liked it so much that I had to remain until today. :-)

I am in Apollo since 2004. But because of so many wonderful memories I feel as if it has been much much longer. I must say that Apollo means much more than just birds of song...

I always feel good with Apollo - anywhere and anytime - and there are a lot of funny people :)))

Why Apollo? And why not? Maybe because it is not just a choir.

A huge pile of wonderful memories is connected with Apollo, I like our spontaneous singing at fancy times and places (in the streets, Christmas markets, waiting in the line for lunch...)

In 1997 I discovered, thanks to Julko and Vinko, that there exist choirs in which normal mortal people can sing - then I understood that this would be exactly the thing I had been missing in my life...

It is wonderful when you can do what trully fills your heart and especially when it also causes joy of other people.

I´ve been singing siiiiince 2000 and why? Because I like it, it fill me with joy, it makes me meet new people and visit new places... I was lucky that Apollo was the first choir I tried out :).

Fascinuje ma keď si len tak niekde spontánne zaspievame- na ulici, v električke, v rade na lanovku...:) . Najviac ma očarila atmosféra v Českom Krumlove, kde sme si spievali kráčajúc nočnými uličkami.

Spievanie ma baví a sprevádza celý život, naša rodina bola vždy taká spevavá. Apollo sú úžasní ľudia, skladby, dirigent (a jeho vždy nové a nové metódy)
