Coro Della Sat

The Profile

Italian male choir from Trento, founded in 1926 by the Pedrotti brothers as the choir of the Società degli Alpinisti Tridentini (SAT). Renowned for popularizing canti di montagna, including the classic La Montanara, and for its distinctive all-male choral sound.

SAT stands for Società degli Alpinisti Tridentini; the choir is based in Trento, Italy; active since 1926; internationally recognized for canti di montagna such as La Montanara (by Toni Ortelli).

A reflective, poetic review links Coro della SAT’s singing to the Alpine Corps and the harsh beauty of mountain life. It treats folk songs as living history and cites classics like La Montanara, Ta-pum and Era una notte che pioveva. The choir’s long-standing seriousness and ability to move listeners are emphasized. Overall tone: affectionate, memory-rich, and respectful.
