“Spontaneous Grace!” - The Washington Post
“Sheer beauty...overwheming!” - Stereophile Magazine
"Cantus is a splendid, relatively new male a cappella choral group that swells the ranks of our current golden age of ensemble singing in a distinctive way....Other groups aim for a honeyed but disembodied sound. Cantus matches that blend, but it also revels in a heft of sound hardly imagined possible from 10 men singing without accompaniment." The Los Angeles Times
"a robust sound inviting for its warmth, vigor and flexibility with an obvious love for the music and their work.” - The Houston Chronicle
"The premier men's vocal ensemble in the United States" - Fanfare Magazine
Enjoying a successful blend of national tours and recording projects, Cantus isgaining recognition as one of America’s finest professional male vocal ensembles.The ensemble’s performances are met with overwhelming praise for its unique blendof youthful vitality and polished nuance. Their repertoire spans many periods andgenres, including Gregorian chant, Renaissance motets, contemporary sacred works,art songs, world music, spirituals, and pop. Cantus vocal ensemble regularly stretches the boundaries of what is considered traditional choral work.
