Repertoar

PUĽS focuses primarily on the traditions of the Rusyns living in eastern Slovakia, but also on the folklore of other regions of Slovakia, adapted into a more elaborate staged form.

His repertoire includes also works, which goes beyond the scope of folklore and links it with various genres, thereby PUĽS occupies a unique place on the artistic scene.

The dance section is composed of professional dancers. Their artistic expression is characterised by an understanding of folk dance and its regional variations, mastery of other dance techniques (classical and modern dance), dramatic expression, precision, dynamism and high technical demand, often enriched with elements of acrobatics. Dancers are able to interpret a wide variety of choreographies – ranging from traditional folk dances right through to modern and staged choreographies. Daily varied movement and fitness training ensures their continuous professional development and artistic versatility.

The vocal section consists of professional singers. It specialises in performing folk songs, predominantly from the Rusyn ethnic group, but also songs from various regions of Slovakia. The singers perform both as a choir and as soloists, presenting both traditional material and its artistic reinterpretations. Their repertoire also includes other musical genres, such as musicals and pop music. The choir combines singing with movement on stage, which enhances the expressive and dramatic impact of their performances. Regular vocal training and work on their repertoire ensure their continuous artistic development.

The orchestra is made up of professional musicians, who perform folk music in traditional as well as highly stylised forms. Their musical expression is characterised by a stylised interpretation, technical proficiency and sensitivity to the folk character of the music. Thanks to their musical versatility, the musicians have mastered further musical genres and are able to adapt to diverse artistic projects. The orchestra accompanies dance and choir, whilst it as part of performance it also presents its own stand-alone programme numbers.
