Cantus
The “engaging” (The New Yorker) allmale
vocal ensemble Cantus is widely
known for its trademark warmth and
blend, innovative programming and
riveting performances of music ranging
from the Renaissance to the 21st century.
The Washington Post has hailed the
Cantus sound as having both “exalting
finesse” and “expressive power” and
refers to the “spontaneous grace” of
its music making. The Philadelphia
Inquirer called the group nothing short
of “exquisite.”
Working without a conductor, the
members of Cantus rehearse and
perform as chamber musicians, each
contributing to the entirety of the artistic
process, creating programs that give
voice to shared human experiences. As
the Star Tribune has written, “The main
hallmark of the Cantus sound has always
been sheer quality and an unbroken
belief in the special way that vocal music
has of warming and invigorating the
human spirit.”
As a courtesy to our performers and other patrons, we suggest that children under age 6 not attend our performances. Everyone, regardless of age, must have a ticket.
