It should be fairly straightforward for most choirs – no divisi, no extremes of range. One feature is that the tenor part only goes up to D – this will enable "spare" basses to help out if necessary.

Today, it is the most acclaimed vocal group in the Hungarz, renowned for quality performances. The exceptional abilities of its members enables the choir to choose from a wide selection of repertoire, indeed. Whether it’s church music that you’re after, a powerful performance of contemporary music, enjoying short outtakes from Italian films accompanied by renditions of Italian bar music from the 1500’s until nowadays, or you just can’t resist an insightful staging of the works of Hungarian composer-giants, Liszt and Bartok, needless to say, you shall always be in for a treat with the Saint Ephraim Male Choir.  less
