CANTICO SINGERS - Spring Concert Celebrating 10 Years of Music

Cántico Singers brings their beautiful choral sounds back for another season. Now in its tenth year, Cántico Singers combines an array of select local talent with an eclectic mix of programming. While rooted in the classical tradition, this 25-voice vocal ensemble performs a wide-ranging repertoire including classical, jazz, Broadway, and acoustic folk rock. We mix the familiar with the unusual, the popular with the ancient, the profound with light-hearted into a fast-paced concert for choral fan and newcomer alike.

Performing a variety of songs from classics such as "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen and praiseworthy spirituals like The Battle of Jericho by Moses Hogan, to contemporary pieces like "Five Hebrew Love Songs" by Eric Whitacre and "Sure On This Shining Night" by Morten Lauridesen the whole family will find something to enjoy. For the sophisticated choral music lover you'll love the gorgeous "Ubi Caritas" by Paul Mealor, an original composition dedicated to and performed at the wedding ceremony of Prince William and Catherine Middleton; and gamers will be familiar with Babe Yetu, a Swahili adaptation of "The Lord's Prayer" by Christopher Tin and Chris Kaiagiri from the video game Civilization IV, just to name a few!

Come join us for an evening of incredible music and fun. You're sure to hear something familiar and moving at this wonderful concert. See you there!

With special guest performances by Lincoln High School Choir.

Held at the First Unitarian Church Eliot Chapel in downtown Portland, with its historic setting, and classic architecture, this venue provides a wonderfully intimate space for listening to live choral singers. Located a few blocks west of the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, close to many of Portland's great restaurants and ample parking, perfect for a date night.
