Cantate Carlisle

Welcome!
Welcome to Cantate Carlisle! Founded in 1990, we are the Carlisle area's premier chamber chorus, an auditioned choral ensemble known for its versatility and eclectic programming. Founder and Artistic Director Cheryl Parsons leads this group of singers in two thematic concerts in Carlisle each season in music ranging from the serious to the whimsical. We perform classical music representing many historical periods, contemporary music in a wide variety of styles, and multi-cultural music from throughout the world. Our talented vocalists offer a tasty mix of a cappella pieces, music with orchestral accompaniment, and selections featuring the talents of accompanist Arthur Thompson. Cantate Carlisle concerts have become a unique cultural asset by providing area audiences the best of two worlds: the performance quality associated with ensembles based in a large city, but within a setting that promotes the sense of community that makes Carlisle such a wonderful place to live. While providing an ongoing showcase for local talent, Cantate Carlisle brings thoughtful programming, expressive and elegant music making, and the splendor of beautifully-produced, well-tuned voices to area audiences. Cantate Carlisle contributes to the quality of life in our community by enhancing many local activities and special functions, including benefit concerts for other non-profit organizations. Here you will find many links, including those to our current concert season, how to purchase tickets and CDs, photos from our international tours as well as our local concerts, and how to help us to continue to bring an exciting and diverse musical program to the area. We welcome your ongoing support and participation. |
