Christmas with Cantus - With Newport Classical
Experience the holiday season through the rich, resonant voices of Cantus! After two sold out performances in 2024, the premier low-voice ensemble returns to Newport for an afternoon of beloved Christmas carols and contemporary choral works. With music ranging from Silent Night and O Come, All Ye Faithful alongside recent works from the bold, fresh voices of composers like Zanaida Robles and Eric Whitacre, Christmas with Cantus is a warm and moving celebration of the season. Set in the intimate and acoustically exceptional Newport Classical Recital Hall, this festive one-hour performance offers a beautiful mix of familiar traditions and new perspectives on the season.
