A Condensed History of St. Nicholas
Serbian Orthodox Cathedral Choir
The St. Nicholas Serbian Orthodox Cathedral Choir came into existence in 1964 under the leadership of President Jovo Borovich and the capable directorship of Slavko Zubac. The choir had a humble beginning, singing responses to the Holy Liturgy held at the Queen’s hall, a temporary home which was donated by
Mrs. Milica Chelar and Mr. Marko Chelar. The choir has continuously sang responses to the Holy Liturgy at our now, St. Nicholas Cathedral since consecration in 1965.
Slavko Zubac started a junior choir in 1968 and passed on the directorship of the senior choir to Roger Todorovic with teaching help from Peter Bila.
In 1972 the St. Nicholas Cathedral Choir's current directress Protinica Mira Stojsavljevic arrived. Mira's dedication to the choir has lasted over 3 decades and continues to this day.
The St. Nicholas Cathedral choir holds annual concerts where we host choirs from other Serbian Church communities. We often represent our community by singing events hosted by other communities. The St. Nicholas Cathedral Choir continues to uphold the SSF mission to help perpetuate and promote the cultural, liturgical and ethnic music of our Serbian forefathers.
