The Keszthely Helikon Choir was founded in 1987 by Gusztávné Kendeh and her fellow singing enthusiasts. Initially, the ensemble was hosted at the Festetics Castle, and today it operates at the Festetics György Music School. Over the past decades, the choir has received numerous prestigious awards. It has won gold ratings multiple times, earned the titles of Gala Choir and Festival Choir, and has been recognized for its work with the KÓTA Award, Pro Cultura Award, the Keszthely City Award, and the Zala County Municipality Cultural Excellence Award. Their repertoire includes both secular and sacred works. The choir is an active participant in the cultural life of Keszthely and its surroundings. Since September 2022, their artistic work has been directed by Kálmán Haga.
