The Royal Opera Chorus is an integral part of The Royal Opera, based at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, London, known for its exceptionally high-quality opera productions. As the backbone of the opera's vocal ensemble, the chorus has critically acclaimed contributions to both classic and contemporary operas. The highly skilled group of singers plays a pivotal role in creating the depth and emotion that opera demands, often representing the masses from which powerful tales of history, myth, and legend unfold on the stage.

The Chorus' involvement in performances such as "Il Matrimonio Segreto," "La Figlia Del Reggimento," and "La Forza Del Destino," demonstrates its versatility and adaptability to different styles and periods. Not restricted to Italian operatic masterpieces, their repertoire spans a range of languages and periods, as seen in their performances of Handel's "Samson," Britten's "Gloriana," and Rimsky-Korsakov's "The Golden Cockerel." While most of their work is associated with live performances, they also feature in recordings that capture the essence of their vibrant stage presence. This versatility has fortified The Royal Opera Chorus's reputation as one of the premier ensembles in the international opera scene.
