As graduation approaches faster with each day, a lot of seniors in both college and high school are starting to worry about where they'll be getting their singing fix. 

Viva Vox choir from Belgrade, Serbia, is a great model to look to for inspiration. They were formed 11 years ago by a group of friends from high school who, together with their music teacher and conductor, Jasmina Lorin, were intent on continuing their high school choir glory.

Viva Vox Live at the semifinals of "Die Große Chance der Chöre"


Last year, Viva Vox competed on the Austrian reality TV show "Die Große Chance der Chöre" -- roughly translated to "The Great Opportunity of Choirs."

 "We were getting ready a few weeks before this performance. For the first time, we are working on the concept of putting together a television performance of a single track, and the whole performance is designed somewhat differently than in concert." -Producer Voksovci

Viewers can expect treatment of the legendary songs of one of the most important bands of the 20th century, a brand new choreography, and details that cannot be seen on the live performance. ... Watch us, cheer, and, of course, if you live in Austria -- vote. We will do our best!

Two years ago, the choir celebrated its 10th anniversary with a slew of major releases, including its first album and official music video, as well as the biggest concert Viva Vox ever produced. Ten thousand people at the Belgrade Kombank Arena got to see Viva Vox on May 9, 2015.

Viva Vox's version of German industrial-metal band Rammstein's "Du Hast" went viral in the summer of 2011.  Since then, the choir has continued to gain popularity in its native Serbia and throughout the world.  Viva Vox has mounted several tours across Europe as well as standout performances at international festivals Exit and Sea Dance.

When asked what their greatest career achievement was, Lorin said, "the concert in the General Assembly Hall of the United Nations in New York on the 14th of January 2013 as a part of Orthodox New Year's celebrations. As the only musical group from this region to ever perform in this hall, Viva Vox has joined the select company of musicians who have had this great honor."

Another highlight was the concert they held at the Great Hall of People in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.

Fan-taken videos of Viva Vox give a more accurate feel to Viva Vox's sound, even if the clips are a bit blurry and shaky.

Some dreams can be realized. The ones we dream are a little more difficult, but do not give up. Hope dies last, they say.
