Welsh National Opera Chorus

Prestigious Welsh Opera Company Choir

The Welsh National Opera (WNO) Chorus is an integral part of the Welsh National Opera, one of the leading opera companies in the United Kingdom. Based in Cardiff, Wales, the chorus has been an essential component of the company since its founding in 1946. The WNO Chorus is known for its versatility, performing a wide range of operatic repertoire from classic works to contemporary pieces. They have participated in numerous critically acclaimed productions and have contributed to the success of the Welsh National Opera both nationally and internationally. The chorus works alongside distinguished conductors and directors and often collaborates with the WNO Orchestra. Their performances are characterized by their vocal excellence and dramatic presence, contributing to the rich cultural tapestry of Wales and beyond. While specific albums such as "Norma" or "Symphonies 6 & 9 • The Country Beyond The Stars" may not be directly attributed to them, they have certainly been involved in recording various operatic works throughout their career.
