Spring Concert

 Celebrating the Choral Art :
Past, Present, and Future
 
 Once upon a time Cantate Carlisle was only a dream. With the encouragement and financial
  support of two close friends, Cantate Carlisle  Artistic Director Cheryl Parsons took the steps to realize that dream. Twenty years later she, the singers, and the board of directors not
  only celebrate that dream, but begin to realize a new dream, the beginnings of a choir for
  young people sponsored by Cantate Carlisle. The music for this spring's concert pays tribute
to music, to the inspiration of dreams, and to the future.
