Cantus

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 “exalted finesse” and “expressive power,” and refers to the “spontaneous grace” of its music making. As one of the nation’s few full-time vocal ensembles, Cantus has risen 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.

Singers/Co-Artistic Directors: Jacob Christopher (tenor), Alex Nishibun (tenor), Alberto de la Paz (tenor), Paul Scholtz (tenor), Rod Kelly Hines (baritone), Jeremy Wong (baritone), Chris Foss (bass), Samuel Green (bass)
