Summary/Abstract: The essence of the paper consists in the discussion of the activities whose purpose is to produce the positive development of a songster in amateur choir ensembles. On the basis of the long-standing experience of the author in the work with amateur choirs she indicates progress and success as the determinant of artistic activities in a songster ensemble. The development of the musical awareness of the choir singer is a process which is directly influenced by concert-related activities, recording sessions, rehearsals, the conductor, instances of friendship and the resulting social relations. A presentation of the experiences associated with the directing of an amateur choir ensemble whose artistic standards have been already developed – an ensemble which is featured in international choir festivals in the country and beyond – demonstrates that progress and success furnish a great deal of enjoyment associated with performing music to the performers.
