Director, Janet Skones Hitt Assistant Director, Donovan Salt Website, CantabileofSkagitValley.org Group Size, 35 In December of 2005, a small group of singers assembled to perform at the Habitat for Humanity Christmas Concert in La Conner, Washington. Out of that original group, Cantabile was formed. Cantabile is an adjective, meaning songlike, or in a smooth, flowing, lyrical style. Today, Cantabile has grown to become a 35-member ensemble of auditioned vocalists gathered from the Skagit Valley area, Oak Harbor, and Everett. The group performs Christmas and spring concerts of sacred and secular works. We enjoy performing classical music that has withstood the test of time, and experimenting with contemporary selections that challenge us and entertain our audiences. Our mission is to share our love of beautiful choral music with audiences throughout the Skagit Valley area and beyond. The public is invited to sit in and listen to rehearsals. Singers interested in auditioning for Cantabile should contact Executive Director Lynne Rheinhardt at lynnt2001@msn.com. We invite your comments and hope that you reserve a permanent place on your calendar for our seasonal concerts. |
