Crystal Queer Choir (CQC): A Celebration of Music, Diversity, and Inclusion

Crystal Queer Choir (CQC) is a lively and inclusive LGBTQ+ choir based in Ljubljana, uniting 28 members from eight countries, ranging in age from 18 to 55. Founded in October 2022, CQC has quickly become a celebrated voice in Ljubljana’s musical and queer community, performing at LGBTQ+ events and gatherings across Slovenia.

With a shared passion for singing and a dedication to promoting diversity and unity, CQC’s repertoire features a joyful mix of uplifting songs by Slovenian and international artists, as well as original pieces created by choir members. Audience favorites include Super Trouper (ABBA), I Will Survive (Gloria Gaynor), the CQC Anthem by Eva Jakupaj, Amazing Gays (a unique twist on Amazing Grace), Samo Ljubezen (Sestre), and Pretty Oblekica (a mash up of songs I Am Pretty and Oblemčem si Oblekico).  

CQC operates as a cultural-musical association, managed by a dedicated Board of its own members. The choir’s performances are shaped by the creative vision of their Choirmaster and Artistic Leader, Anja Hrastovšek - a talented singer, songwriter, and choir master.  

Through their music, Crystal Queer Choir continues to inspire and uplift audiences, fostering a sense of celebration and belonging wherever they perform.
