Canoryon Lowen (Cornish for ‘Happy Singers’) is a mixed choir of 24 singers, based in the National ‘Village of the Decade’, St Neot, but with members drawn from both Devon and Cornwall.
Formed in 2002 under the musical directorship of Nick Hart, the choir performs music from a very wide repertoire, including classical, church music, rock ballads, spirituals and musicals - from Tallis to Tavener, Beatles to Broadway, and everything in between.
Concerts have included complete works, such as Karl Jenkins’ ‘The Armed Man’, and Orf’s 'Carmina Burana', which were performed to high acclaim. As well as local concerts the choir has undertaken two tours, singing in Prague, Venice and Cortina.
“… a wonderful programme of music … the audience were spellbound by the quality of the singing and the richness of the sound …sheer professionalism …” (Cornish Guardian)
“The choice of music the finest I have heard…inspirational and yet so sensitive…” (R Richards)
