Pero ha sido una vez más el Coro Titular del Teatro Real (Coro Intermezzo), dirigido por Andres Máspero, acompañado esta vez por los Pequeños Cantores de la JORCAM, quienes han lucido con más brillo.
I understand they are talking about the theater's "in-house" choir (though this is not the term in English). Anyone know the term for the regular choir that is pulled it to sing in all of the shows at a particular theater?

The Choir of the Teatro Real

: The Chorus (not Choir) of the Teatro Real would be fine, and is probably what would actually be said.

: Not necessarily! Perhaps to emphasise quasi official status but "the Teatro Real Chorus" would sound best I think ;-)

Resident Choir
This is what springs to mind, and it seems to be in use:
"Royal & Derngate Community Choir is the theatre's resident choir" http://www.royalandderngate.co.uk/GetInvolved/Community/Choi...

As Charles so rightly points out below, in this context we should be talking about a "resident chorus".

: Agree with resident: good word, and that's the tricky bit. But NB. in an opera house it's a CHORUS, not a choir. Covent Garden etc. have orchestra and chorus; choirs in cathedrals and such.
