From Gregorian chant, to the Sistine Chapel, to Giovanni Gabrieli, to Italian Opera, to the Alpini Folk Music ensembles and much, much more, browse our sheet music and scores, and explore the wide world of Italian choral music with Stretta Music today!
From as early as the Middle Ages, choral singing flourished in Italy. At first, Italian choral music was solely sacred, however, in the Renaissance Period, choral music began to branch out to the secular world, and through the works of Giovanni Gabrieli in Venice, complex polyphony developed, and even works for multiple choirs began to emerge.
Choral music soon took to the stage, and quickly become a fundamental part of Italian Opera, and also played a key role in Italian Folk Music, showcased by the famous Alpini choirs. In the 20th century, there was a big neo-Renaissance revival in Italy, and choral singing is as strong today as it was through the ages.
Do you want to know how many choirs there are in Italy today? More than 2000 according to FE.N.I.A.R.CO, the Italian National Federation of Regional Choral Associations!
