The Slovene Octet was established in 1951 under the initiative called Slovenska izseljenska matica, which aimed to strengthen links between Slovenia and the Slovene community in the USA. Around 30 singers, many of them acclaimed opera and concert singers, have interpreted compositions of all music periods for the group. The Octet was one of the best-known Yugoslav choral groups and toured France, Belgium, Norway, Austria and Italy in the 1950s. Later it also performed in North and South America, Australia, China, Japan and Angola. Since 1996, when the Slovene Octet was reformed with new singers, it has performed more than 100 concerts in Slovenia, Austria, Italy, Hungary, Bosnia, Macedonia and Bulgaria. Since 2000 Dr Mirko Cuderman has been its Artistic Director.
