Our choral group, Coro Allegro, is for anyone who enjoys singing and wants to learn traditional Italian folk and popular songs.
Since 1985, Coro has performed at NBICF special events, such as Festa Italiana, and at numerous concerts and Italian festivals throughout Northern California. Coro rehearses at the Italian Cultural Center and encourages new members to join our group.
Coro Allegro is accepting new singers. Additional voices - sopranos, altos, tenors, and baritone/bass will make it possible to expand the Coro's programs. We are also looking for individuals who can play an instrument to accompany the Coro. We would like to find a keyboard, guitar, bass, percussion, sax or other instruments. Full knowledge of the Italian language, although useful, is not necessary.
The Director of Coro Allegro is Sal Peritore. If you have an interest in joining or learning more about the Coro, call NBICF at 591-9696 or send email to nbicf@sonic.net.
Our classical aria group, Opera Ensemble, performs at various NBICF events, including Vineyard Opera, Festa Italiana, and Gala Dinners.
