The choir DiM consists of its pianist and conductor Damir Zagoršćak, a guitarist David Crnić and nine female vocalists. Damir Zagoršćak is a primary school teacher, an active musician, and is both a conductor and a performer. He takes part in various cultural events, sharing his talent and enthusiasm for music.

The region is situated in the mountainous region of Croatia and the population is approximately 20,000 inhabitants. The area is known for its ecology, varied wildlife, dramatic views and fresh pure air.
