Staff
Like every year, Corearte also has a great group of collaborators who, in addition to loving music, enjoy receiving international guests. Each choir will have an staff coordinator who will act as a guide for travel, visits, concert participation, etc.
Guest Conductors
Prestigious Choral Conductors are summoned by the Corearte International Festivals to dictate training workshops to the participants. In every edition of the Festival, schedule organization is often very complicated due to numerous musical commitments; however, thanks to an early organization, we have enjoyed the presence of some of them several times in our festivals and choral tours.
