The Youth Choir Svitych of the Gogol State University in Nizhyn was established in 1993. The choir members are students of different university departments, young lecturers and teachers at local schools. The choir’s aim is the formation of spiritual and national self-awareness of young people in an independent Ukrainian state. The broad repertoire of the ensemble covers pieces of various epochs and genres, including arrangements of folk melodies as well as Western European and Ukrainian folk music. Ukrainian liturgical and sacred music, represented by such composers as M. Diletski, M. Berezowski, A. Wedel, D. Bortnianski, M. Lysenko, M. Leontovych and K. Stechenko, occupies a central position in the choir's repertoire. The youth choir Svitych is a winner of the M.
