Cantus Novus’ 2025-2026 season theme is “For the People” as we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. As musicians, the art of singing together is only fully realized when we share our music with others.
This December, we look forward to sharing our program, “Honoring Community and Tradition,” a concert featuring music rooted in the customs, rituals, and practices of the greater community around us. Music that touches the aura of what it is that makes us human. We find in Dan Forrest’s Requiem for the Living, a work of intensity and personal triumph, a testimony to the resilience we rely on amidst the turmoil of the present day. There too is the sublime beauty of Morten Lauridsen’s O Magnum Mysterium, a shimmering contemporary anthem steeped in the history of the Nativity scene. What follows is a collection of traditional carols freshly arranged for a new generation of celebrations, festivals, and families. Honoring the past whilst celebrating the present, is our invitation to join Cantus Novus for what is most assuredly a festive season.
Join us this December for “Honoring Community and Tradition.”
Tickets purchased in advance are $30; tickets at the door (cash or checks only) are $35.
