Cantemus is an experienced chamber choir of up to 30 singers that draws its membership from Cardiff and the surrounding counties. It has become established as one of Wales' finest chamber choirs, performing to the highest standard. The choir performs a wide range of music from the Renaissance to the present day, with the music of J. S. Bach featuring prominently. Cantemus has established an enviable reputation for stylish performances of his music.

The choir regularly works with professional soloists and orchestral players of national and international repute, and has broadcast on BBC Radio 3 (In Tune and The Choir) and Classic FM. The choir makes biennial international tours. In 2002 it appeared in Paris; in 2004 it undertook an "Arctic" tour in Northern Norway and in 2006 gave concerts in Southern Spain. In March 2008 they travelled to Perugia, Italy.  

Cantemus recently released their first CD - The Contingent World - consisting of music specially composed for them by Ian Lawson and Ben Heneghan (click here to listen to a few tracks). The CD was recently featured on the BBC Radio 3 programme The Choir and has been played on Classic FM.

In November we will be joining forces with Ensemble Hercules and a range of soloists for a performance of Monteverdi's Vespers of 1610.   This will take place in Llandaff Cathedral at 7.30pm Saturday 15th November 2008 (click on the poster to enlarge).
