The Ladies Ensemble

The Ladies Ensemble is a Slovak women's chamber orchestra, which was founded in 2014 by a union of young professional musicians, in whose performances you will discover that classical music is far from boring, but full of life, joy and emotions. Popular modern music in orchestral arrangements will also gain a new dimension and appeal.

The concert will feature compositions by the greats of classical and film music.
