Our winter concert will feature a gorgeous piece from Benjamin Britten's A Boy is Born, called In The Bleak Midwinter which is stunningly beautiful and challenging. Also we will be learning Samuel Barbers' To be Sung on Water; a piece which after introduced never leaves your soul. The concert is full of hauntingly surreal choral music for women's choir which celebratesboth the art of choral music as well as Decembers magical season of celebration.

Cantala Concert 2017: In the Bleak Midwinter

I've recently discovered a lesser-known work by Britten, A Boy is Born; a very demanding unaccompanied choral work for mixed choir. But lucky for us, the 5th movement In The Bleak Midwinter, is only for treble voices and Cantala is set to perform it in concert on December 9th, 2017, Toronto.
