It is the resident ensemble of the Kiev Music Fest and the Kiev International Piano Competition in Memory of Vladimir Horowitz.
Their repertoire features more than 200 works by composers ranging from Bach, Brahms, Debussy, Handel, Mendelssohn, and Mozart to Adams, Corigliano, Crumb, Boulez, and Stravinsky, and includes respected Ukrainian composers Hrabovsky, Karabyts, Silvestrov, Stankovych, and others.
