The Argentinean Choir (Coro Argentino) of Minnesota was founded in April of 2022 to promote Argentinean music outside of Argentina and give its members a space of belonging, in reconnection with their culture and roots, and a home away from home. Currently, the choir has 17 members of different nationalities and 3 accompanying musicians. The choir has sung at different community events in Minnesota, receiving a very enthusiastic welcome and feedback.

Its conductor and founder, Maria Claudia Benaros, is originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and has sung in choirs since age 6. She started her musical journey at the renowned Collegium Musicum in Buenos Aires and continued at the Buenos Aires Conservatory of Music Manuel de Falla. Afterward, she went to the Rubin Academy of Music and Dance in Jerusalem, Israel, and graduated with honors in violin performance from Augsburg University in Minnesota. In addition, she is a Kindermusik instructor and Suzuki pedagogy instructor. Maria is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in choral and orchestra conducting at the University of La Rioja, Spain.
