H I S T O R Y
Since its foundation in 1994, Choir KORAIS has a particularly strong presence in the choral movement of our country, organizing large events, in collaboration with famous Greek composers, songwriters, performers of the classical repertoire and personalities of arts.
The Choir has held concerts in many cities of Greece and abroad, and made a special appearance in Cuba, where it performed a concert in the Cathedral of St. Francis of Assisi, in Havana, invited by the Cuban Ministry of Culture.
The two concerts with the popular oratorio "AXION ESTI" of Mikis Theodorakis at Thessaloniki Palais des Sports and the "CARMINA BURANA" at Thessaloniki Concert Hall, performed in collaboration with Thessaloniki’s State Symphony Orchestra (under the Cultural Olympiad), are the Choir’s most important moments until now. The Choir has been honored by the Organization for the European Capital of Culture "Thessaloniki 97" as well as by other Institutions for its contribution.
In April 2011, the choir "KORAIS" launched the World’s Choir Festival on Musicals, an innovative international choral institution that takes place every April exclusively in Greece and the city of Thessaloniki.
Since October 2013, the Choir is issuing the "Φωνήεν” (Latin: “Phonien”, English Translation: Vowel), the only choral online magazine in Greece.
