About El León de Oro
Artist Biography
One of Spain's leading choral ensembles, El León de Oro sings repertory from the Renaissance era to modern works. It has been heard both a cappella and in performance with several leading Spanish orchestras. El León de Oro ("The Golden Lion") was formed in 1997 and was assembled into a choir by director Marco Antonio García de Paz. He remained the choir's director as of the mid-2020s. Gaining recognition outside Spain, El León de Oro collaborated in England with The Tallis Scholars and their director, Peter Phillips. He directed the group on its first recording, the a cappella Renaissance recital Amarae Morti. El León de Oro returned in 2021 with an album of works by Francisco Guerrero, with Phillips once again as conductor. Phillips and García de Paz were co-directors on the choir's next release, George de la Hèle: Missa Praeter rerum seriem.
