“As sources of inspiration, challenge, and wonder, mountains have shaped human civilization as much as they’ve shaped our geography. In a program that showcases works by Zoltán Kodály, Chen Yi, and Gabriela Lena Fran, Cantus explores the far-ranging music of expansive skies and breathtaking summits. Join the ensemble for a refreshed, informal concert experience – and get a sneak-peek at some of the music slated for an upcoming Cantus recording!” 

The “engaging” (New Yorker) low-voice 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.”  

As one of the nation’s few full-time vocal ensembles, Cantus has come to prominence with its distinctive approach to creating music. 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.”
