Welcome to The Cantabile Ensemble
 
     

Based in the island of Jersey, The Cantabile Ensemble is a mixed choir of 16-24 voices formed at the end of 2004. Specialising in “Church Music”, the choir operates on a freelance basis and is regularly invited to give concerts and sing for special services in local churches and at other notable events in the island. We also tour occasionally to sing in UK cathedrals.

Our repertoire includes music from the Renaissance to the present day, including music specially commissioned for us.

How to join us

We are always interested in hearing from potential new members, who may join at any time and are not required to audition. However, we are a busy choir and our repertoire changes to match to the liturgical season. Some sight reading ability is therefore desirable.

We rehearse on Tuesday evenings at St. Peter's Parish Church. For directions, please click here. For further information, please click here to contact us.
