Influences
Choral music from the Renaissance to the present day all sung in the original language.
Coro Nostro is a mixed chamber choir of about 30 singers of all ages drawn from across the Universities, the City and County of Leicester, UK and beyond. We have a wide repertoire of sacred and secular polyphonic motets, madrigals and part-songs, ranging from the 13th to the 21st Century, including three new pieces especially written for us in 2004 and 2005 by Anthony Pither.
We receive much praise from the public for the quality of our musicianship, the variety of our repertoire and the clarity and authenticity of our diction and expression. We are a lively and friendly group. New singers (including relative beginners) are always given a warm welcome and made to feel part of the team.
We were very fortunate last year to have performed the European premiere of O Magnum Mysterium by American composer Frank La Rocca. The whole choir loved singing this beautiful piece and we were even more fortunate to have the composer come all the way from America to hear it. This year he composed a special piece for us called "O Eve" which we performed as a World Premiere at our Christmas concert. Thankyou Frank.
