Òran began as an alumni offshoot of the Kokopelli Youth choir, but it has since developed into a group made up of young adults from all over Edmonton and the surrounding area. Each brings a different viewpoint to the group, but all are united in their passion for singing.

The school’s contribution to literature, philosophy and the arts has been immense, from such alumni as Ben Jonson, John Dryden, Henry Purcell and Christopher Wren to A.A. Milne, Adrian Boult, John Gielgud and Peter Ustinov, from andrew Lloyd-Webber and Stephen Poliakoff to Julian anderson, Ian Bostridge, Helena B...    less
