Coro Giovanile Femminile “Il Garda in Coro”
The female youth choir “IL GARDA IN CORO” was founded in 2013 under the direction of MARIA ROSA FINOTTI.

It is composed by 16 choristers aged between 14 and 26 years, whose vocal education was entrusted to Maria Rosa Finotti since their childhood. The Choir is the result of the union of several children’s choirs, “Il Garda in coro di Malcesine”, “I bambini di Bure” and “Coro giovanile di San Zeno di Montagna”, all directed by Maria Rosa Finotti. The Choir has performed for important musical institutions: in 2014 it participated in the show “Rock Love Chopin” directed by Matusiak Andrzej with important international artists at the Arena di Verona. It was awarded first prize with top marks at the National Music Competition “Val di Sole” - Trento and the prize “Laslo Spezzaferri 2015” awarded by the Conservatory of Verona for its musical activity. It was invited by the Conservatory of Verona and the International Choral Competition for Children’s & Youth Choirs of Malcesine to perform in workshops and international master classes with Lucio Golino, Luigi Mazzola, Mario Lanaro, Mario Mora, Mateja Cernic, and Catharina Sharp. It collaborated with the music society “Lirica Italiana” in the opera “Suor Angelica” by Puccini in 2017 and in the opera “La Boheme” by Puccini in 2018, each performed a number of times at the theatre SS.
