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.

you are a composer of Church Music and would like to write a piece of

How to join |

Tour to Norwich

|
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

The choir will be singing
the Services at Norwich Cathedral from 29-31 August 2008 and is seeking
sponsorship.
