The band’s repertoire includes dance and vocal music compositions of Bojkivshchyna, Transcarpathians, Bukovyna, Gutsulshchyna, arrangements of songs and orchestra compositions made by famous Ukrainian composers and also thematic programs – Rizdvyana, Velykodnya and Shevchenkivska.

Both – the poetic content and the lyrics of Cheremosh songs are built up on the best traditions of the national music compositions, about which our Ukrainian writer PavloGrabovskyj said: “What a melodius and beautiful music, not to tell about classical simplicity and ingenuousness, inspiration!” “This is the source, from which our descendants will enrich themselves for a long time”.
