Cantus Recordings
Cantus (2007)
One
of NPR's Top Ten Recordings of 2007
Cantus' programming at its finest represents a great mix of styles
and influences. On Cantus we’ve decided to showcase this
variety on one recording. We’ve included a new commission from
Lee Hoiby and paired it with a popular song by Billy Joel. We’ve
included early 20th century Russian sacred music next to early 21st century
American sacred music. We have two show-stoppers - a Smokey Robinson
tune and a spiritual that has a splash of gospel. And preceding a semi-theatrical
setting of “Casey at the Bat” we sing an amusing faux-Finnish
piece. The programming keeps you listening from beginning to end, just
like it does in a live concert.
