Culture at the Cathedral

The Corpus Christi Cathedral Concert Series provided another evening of great entertainment Friday!
We enjoyed a concert by "Cantus"—an ensemble of nine young men from the Twin Cities. It was amazing how those nine voices could totally fill that large cathedral!
To be honest, they only sang two songs with which I was familiar: "Loch Lomond" and "They Call the Wind Maria." But that's OK! I usually don't hear words in songs anyway, and I certainly could not at the cathedral because of the reverberation.
It's the harmony that I enjoy! And there was plenty of it with Cantus. As with most groups, they have a sound all their own. Someone more knowledgeable in the art could probably describe it, but I can't.
Cantus performs on National Public Radio and also educational TV. If you want a sample, check out the YouTube offering below.
Previous years, we have enjoyed the St. Olaf Choir and the United States Naval Academy Men's Glee Club. What treat will be in store us next year?
