Coral Sant Jordi

**Coral Sant Jordi** is a Catalan choir with deep roots in preserving and celebrating the region’s musical heritage. Founded in 1947, the ensemble has spent decades championing traditional Catalan songs, religious works, and folk-inspired compositions, earning a reputation for their rich interpretations of pieces by iconic composers like Lluís Millet and Enric Morera. Their discography—spanning everything from haunting madrigals to lively *sardanes* and even a jazz-inflected tribute to Duke Ellington—showcases their versatility and commitment to both historical and contemporary Catalan culture.

Over the years, Coral Sant Jordi has become a cultural touchstone, releasing albums like *Els Segadors* (featuring Catalonia’s national anthem) and *Cançons Tradicionals Catalanes*, which highlight their role as custodians of regional identity. Celebrating their 50th anniversary in 1997 with a dedicated release, the choir continues to blend reverence for tradition with fresh energy, making Catalan folk melodies and choral masterpieces accessible to new generations. Whether performing mountain songs or sacred masses, their harmonies remain a vibrant love letter to Catalonia.
