The Giovani Cantori di Torino are the mixed youth choir of the Associazione Piccoli Cantori di Torino. The Association, founded in 1972 by the famous children’s choir, opened a music school in 1987 that now has 300 young students and numerous choral formations throughout Turin. In 2012 the choir was founded to further develop a musical path. It currently consists of a group of 50 youngsters aged 14 to 21, led by an artistic team consisting of conductor Carlo Pavese, pianist Gianfranco Montalto and singing teacher Marcella Polidori.
Recently, the choir has further expanded the variety of its activities, in close dialogue with other art forms, broadening the boundaries of the very concept of choir: it participated in an innovative publishing project by Lattes, recording parts of the anthology of the new music manual for secondary schools, creating a vocal installation with the artist Marco Cordero, singing and even walking the catwalk to great critical acclaim for the Cormio brand during Milan Fashion Week.
