Axios was formed in the spring of 2003 while Chorus Director, Boris Derow was still in the monastery with the Basilian fathers at the house of studies in West Mount. He began writing some liturgical pieces in Glen Cove, NY during his novitiate. Fr Superior wanted to do something special for Easter that year and the first group of 8 brothers and 6 young men formed our first group. The first liturgy was such a success that the group expanded and Derow kept writing. Soon they had a complete liturgy and a group of 18 young men rehearsing at the house of studies every Saturday.
Axios has sung liturgies all over Alberta and performed at former Premier Stelmach's swearing in ceremony and the 2014 Pysanka Festival grandstand show. Axios looks forward to performing at the Babas and Borshch Zabava 2015.
