In Simple Gifts, Cantus weaves together personal stories of gratitude along with beloved tunes, including “How Can I Keep From Singing” and “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” timeless classics from Jean Sibelius and Jennifer Higdon, and contemporary gems by Bobby McFerrin and Sydney Guillaume.

The result is a poignant and heartfelt program filled with energy and beauty that uplifts, inspires, and reminds us of what we hold most dear.

Now entering its 31st season, Cantus is acclaimed for its trademark warmth and blend, innovative programming, and compelling performances spanning music from the Renaissance to the 21st century. Praised by The New Yorker as “engaging,” The Washington Post for its “exalting finesse” and “expressive power,” and The Philadelphia Inquirer as “exquisite,” Cantus is one of the nation’s few full-time vocal ensembles.
