About
After two successful albums on Signum Records, the American vocal ensemble Cantus present their first Christmas album, ‘Into The Light’. The album reflects Cantus’ commitment to diversity of repertoire.
Its selections span five languages and feature works by a broad range of composers and arrangers: from John Jacob Niles and Kenneth Jennings, to Joni Mitchell and B.E. Boykin.
The album also offers six pieces created specifically for Cantus, including two new arrangements from Reginald Bowens and Christopher H. Harris.
The “engaging” (The 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.
“What energy Cantus brings to it. Once of the most compelling male voice ensembles around” - Choir and Organ
