Orfeón Pamplonés, since 1865

The Children Choir

The Orfeón Pamplonés’ Junior Children’s Choir consists of seventy children aged from 6 to 10.

One of the aims of the Junior Children’s Choir is to allow its members to have fun with music, helping them along the way with musical and voice training.

The choir also aims to provide its young members with the discipline required in order to form part of the world of choral music. The children work with different pieces with piano accompaniment and sometimes sing with chamber orchestras.

The Junior Children’s Choir has performed at concerts with orchestras such as the Navarre Symphony Orchestra and the Pablo Sarasate Professional Music Conservatory Orchestra, been conducted by the likes of Igor Ijurra and Koldo Pastor, and premiered Christmas carols by the Navarrese composers Iñigo Casalí and Lorenzo Ondarra.

The Junior Children’s Choir frequently takes part in concerts held by associations such as the Red Cross, Nuevo Futuro and UNICEF, and participates in a range of Navarre’s regular music cycles. Its members have performed at Pamplona’s leading venues, including Baluarte and Teatro Gayarre. It regularly takes part in concerts and activities run by Pamplona City Council, which have included the traditional Christmas speech and the opening of the public park named after the Orfeón Pamplonés.

The Junior Children’s Choir sang the musical children’s story Tiempo (Time), written by Josu Elberdin and stage directed by Eduardo Bazo, which it performed in different culture centres in Navarre and in Pamplona’s Teatro Gayarre. It has also staged Eva Ugalde’s musical children’s story Tula, alongside the Orfeón’s Senior Children's Choir, premiering it in Pamplona’s Zentral in café-théâtre format.
