Kor Hen is Trondheim’s queer choir. Since our founding in 2017, we have grown to a membership of around 40 singers of different genders, ages, and nationalities. 

Our choir is open to everybody, regardless of gender, sexuality, singing ability, and previous choral experience, and our repertoire is mainly popular music. 

We work actively for the queer community in Trondheim by creating a safer space for like-minded people, and also nurturing ties with wider national and international queer choral communities. 

We are regular performers on the main stage at Trondheim Pride and have been invited to perform by several other local institutions, such as Trondheim Kunstmuseum. 

Each year we invite a queer choral group to perform in our summer concert, and visiting groups have included Barberfellas (London), Friends of Dorothy (Helsinki), Sapfonia (Bergen), and Homonics (Dublin). Our growing profile has led to an international trip to Germany to hold workshops at the University of Siegen and collaborate with the queer choir Die Taktlosen (Cologne). 

Kor Hen is an activity group under the auspices of FRI Trøndelag, the regional department of the main national queer lobbying organisation, FRI - Foreningen for kjønns- og seksualitetsmangfold. Our choral director is conductor, pianist, pedagogue, and musicologist, Snorre Sletten.
