The EASO Choir is a Spanish choir founded in 1940 in San Sebastián. It was founded as a choral group for lower-range male voices, to spread the knowledge of Basque popular music, has attained prestige in its interpretation of a wide range of choral song.
After sixty years of uninterrupted activity – yet always within its "amateur" status – the group is well consolidated and much involved with its continuing musical and choral formation.
