In Hora Sexta was born as a chamber choir in 2002. From the beginning
our intention was to establish a dialog between ancient vocal music
from the Renaissance and Baroque periods and contemporary music from
the 20th and 21st centuries. As the vocal requirements of this aim are
very important, we pay special attention to the musical and technical
preparation of our repertoires, in order to provide high quality
performances.
Our repertory includes ancient and contemporary music and works from
composers such as Claudio Monteverdi, William Byrd, Heinrich Schütz,
Tomás Luis de Victoria, Thomas Tallis, Vicente Goicoechea, Darius
Milhaud, Francis Poulenc, Vytautas Miskinis, Zoltán Kodaly, Samuel
Barber, Benjamin Britten, Astor Piazzolla and Marcos Leite.
Juan Manuel Conejo is In Hora Sexta's conductor since the birth of the
group.
